Spring teaching

The International Economic Law Clinic gives you the opportunity to apply your understanding of international economic law by undertaking research and preparing briefing documents for real clients. You’ll work under supervision on specific legal questions related to international economic law from clients such as international organisations, governments and non-governmental organisations. You’ll:

• consult with clients
• produce research under close supervision
• discuss your work with supervisors and your peers
• present your findings to clients.

You’ll develop your research, writing and analytical skills, and gain transferable skills. 

Contact hours and workload

This module is approximately 300 hours of work. This breaks down into about 30 hours of contact time and about 270 hours of independent study. The University may make minor variations to the contact hours for operational reasons, including timetabling requirements.

We regularly review our modules to incorporate student feedback, staff expertise, as well as the latest research and teaching methodology. We’re planning to run these modules in the academic year 2025/26. However, there may be changes to these modules in response to feedback, staff availability, student demand or updates to our curriculum.

We’ll make sure to let you know of any material changes to modules at the earliest opportunity.
