While technology brings significant benefits, it also presents new ethical, regulatory, and skill-related challenges for legal professionals. To help lawyers adapt to these changes, a whole host of law schools are now running specialist LL.M. programs in Legal Technology. They focus on how technology is increasingly being used to provide legal services.

The demand for people with LL.M.s in Business Law are on the rise: Global companies are navigating geopolitical and financial tumult, so the demand for lawyers who understand business law is on the up. But with ever more savvy clients demanding more service for their money, competition for work is also heating up. A formal qualification—be it an LL.M. or another type of degree—in business law can help you stand apart from the pack.

As calls across civil society grow louder for a more inclusive form of capitalism, affordable housing, fair wages, welfare and rights for workers, law schools are launching programs that seek to champion positive change in society.
