International Law Specialisation
The UNSW Postgraduate International Law Program – the first such specialist program in Australia – is internationally recognised as one of the most comprehensive postgraduate International Law programs in the world.
Courses are taught by a stellar array of Australian and international experts and are offered in various modes of delivery throughout the year ranging from Summer School Intensives to normal in-Session offerings.
Select courses may also be open to students enrolled in other UNSW programs such as the Master of Environmental Studies, with the consent of the lecturer.

Candidate Information
- Candidates for the LLM by Coursework or Graduate Diploma in Law may undertake study incorporating a major sequence in this area of specialisation.
- From time to time the allocation of courses to major sequences may be altered.
- The Coordinator of Postgraduate Education may, when considering it appropriate, authorise the inclusion of a Special Elective within, or the deletion of a Special Elective from among, the courses allocated to a major sequence.
- The Coordinator of Postgraduate Education may, when considering it appropriate, approve as part of an individual student’s major sequence a course or courses taken by that student on a cross-institutional basis.
- Where a special case is made, or where an individual student’s assessment program for the course concerned is tailored specifically to issues relevant to a major sequence, the Coordinator of Postgraduate Education may approve a course not otherwise allocated to a major sequence as part of that student’s major sequence.
- The Research Thesis 6uoc course LAWS8423 may be counted towards the units of credit required for a major sequence where, in the opinion of the Coordinator of Postgraduate Education, the subject matter of the thesis topic concerned is substantially related to the specialist area of the major sequence.
