I imagine that there is no specialty ranking out there that ranks the top law departments (in the UK) for int'l human rights. I was told that Nottingham is excellent in this area. I imagine that the big schools like Cambridge, Oxford and the U of L schools (Kings, UCL, SOAS) are also probably up there. I would appreciate any comments.

I would definitely say LSE for international HR law in the UK

Could anyone please help me! I am a student of humanities but i am working in my free time at several NGOs, somebody told me about a master of human rights in England where you didn't have to study general Law before, and where you go to class four day s a week and one day you do an internship at an NGO. Has anybody heard about it?? I would appreciate any kind of help to find out.Thanks a lot

Are you referring to the programme at Oxford? If you are, here's the website: http://www.conted.ox.ac.uk/courses/international/mastersdegreeininternationalhumanrightslaw.asp

Edinburgh Unversity also has a renowned International Law faculty including Human Rights as well. www.law.ed.ac.uk
