Thanks for your reply. I noticed that Southampton and Bristol are the most recommended schools when it comes to an LLM. Hopefully my MBA will be sufficient to help mt get in!

Thanks again.

I've very interested in LLM Maritime Law and I'm deciding which university to go between Tulane University or Southampton University since noth universities are famous in this field. Well, Tulane is effected by the hurricane so I don't know how the university and its reputation will be like from now on, on the other side Southtamton is a great univ and very famous for maritime law also, but the cost of living in UK is very high and there are not many chance for international students to receieve a scholarship.
I would be appreciate if anyone could advise me.

Helloooo,
I think you'd have to count Tulane out of it right now cos the school really doesn't exist at the moment. Since they're still trying to pick themselves up, I don't think they might be coordinated enough to accept applications...but you never know. Southampton shld cut it for you...just my 0.02c

don't know why, but I have a "crush" on Southampton. two thinks I have now in mind: costs and being admitted. it is so expensive to study in UK and almost no chance to get a scholarship if you're not from UK/EU. though I have a LLM I worry about being admitted, the competition is tough. and that's because the Univ has a great reputation in Maritime Law.
Good luck!

You should go to UCL definitely... there is a special programme in Shipping Law... covers everything you will ever need - insurance, carriage of goods, admiralty and law of the sea, plenty of stuff there... main courses are mostly based on English law (leading jurisdiction in that area), professors are excellent.

Does anybody know about the LLM in International Transport and Maritime Law from the London Metropolitan University? I found the contents of the program quite interesting and would like to know the reputation of this univeristy and if anyone has attended any course in there?
From what I was able to see while cruising the net is that it has the most heterogeneous contents concerning transport law focused on martitime law. Thanks in advance.

I guess if you're looking to get into the maritime industry as opposed to academia then LMU degree would stand you in good stead. I dont know of anyone who's done the course but by the look of the faculty, I dont think its a good idea if you're gonna teach/ do research.
I'm applying to Southampton, Tulane and Oslo for a Maritime Law LLM beginning Fall 2006. I think I'm limiting my choices. Are there some programs of equal stature that I'm missing out on?

Southampton is the best in Maritime Law. It will give you status in the market (London and worldwide). It has a fantastic teaching staff. Other interesting choices are Nottingham, UCL and Cardiff.

I haven´t considered other choices due to the fact that I need to study in London. So Southampton or Cardiff are not in my choices.
That´s why I am considering firstly London Met, who offers a program on Intl Transport & Maritime Law.
UCL and KCL are my other choices, offerin an LLM in Maritime Law.
That´s why I needed to know the standards of London Met. For what I could see it´s QAA report is very favourable.
I would appreciate any comments...
Thanks in advance.

The LLM in Maritime Law at swansea university is very good and well recognized by the world maritime univeristy. However, the lecturer of the LLM are also lecturers in many international seminar (I think that this is also very important to take into account).
Also remember that swansea university have an International Shipping & Trade Law Institute.

The Oslo Maritime law LLM has a very good reputation, and is cheap. However, the living expenses are high, but you can get really well paid and relevant part-time jobs.

"Norwegian" is right. The LLM at the Scandinavian institute of Maritime Law is actually reckoned as one of the top three maritime law studies in the world. There are just about 20 students attending each year, making the LLM course intimate and social. The professors think contact with the Scandinavian maritime "cluster" (e.g. visiting p&I - clubs, shipyards, brokers and shipowning companies) is of great importance. I am not a student there myself, although I study in Oslo.
