Course summary

This LLM, offered by Queen Mary's Centre for Commercial Law Studies (CCLS) in partnership with the Institute of Art and Law (IAL) is a unique and challenging programme exploring the legal issues surrounding art and cultural objects and cultural heritage. Youll get an in-depth understanding of the workings of the law when it comes to the arts industry and cultural property/heritage, as well as the application of the law in everyday practice.

  • Learn from legal experts and expert practitioners in the field
  • Conduct advanced research in this exciting, innovative legal area
  • Take part in networking and social events run by the Art, Business and Law programme, its student representatives, Queen Mary, Centre for Commercial Law Students, and the IAL
  • Take advantage of the opportunity to attend the numerous public lectures, workshops and seminars on all sorts of topics reflecting the wide and various areas of study on offer by CCLS to all its LLM students across specialisms.

What you'll study

As part of the programme, we organise visits and discussions at some of the most influential art establishments in the UK. Previously, this has included guided tours of the British Museum, The Tate and the Victoria and Albert Museum, together with legal discussions of their collections and practices. Some of these visits are part of our formal Co-Curricular Programme we offer across the semesters where we invite practitioners across the field to engage with our students, while other visits are conducted on a more informal, ad hoc basis.

Further enriching the academic experience, is our Visiting Scholar and Researcher in Residence Scheme, augmenting the research environment for our faculty and students through interactions with a visiting scholar and the various workshops or masterclasses delivered by them during their time with us. For example, our first scholar in residence, from the University of Amsterdam delivered a public lecture as well as a student seminar on restitution issues relating to Nazi-looted art, and also a master class on research methodology for all post-graduate students.

You will also have voluntary access to an excellent series of lectures in Critical Thinking and Writing in Law, a programme offered to all our LLM students to help you to improve your writing and legal research skills.

You will also have the opportunity to attend introductory lectures offered to LLM students during the CCLS induction weeks, including seminars on the common law, commercial law and other relevant topics.
