Go Global: LL.M International Business Law from Victoria, Canada
Build an international perspective without leaving Victoria. The LL.M International Business Law, offered online in exclusive partnership between the University of Cumbria and Robert Kennedy College, gives you the opportunity to explore ideas that shape business across borders while continuing to live and work where you are.
Earn a British Degree with International Recognition
Graduating with a British degree can add an internationally recognisable credential to your professional profile. It signals advanced study in a subject that matters wherever organisations negotiate, invest, collaborate and trade across borders.
For a professional in Victoria, the degree offers a way to strengthen an international outlook without relocating. How a qualification is assessed will depend on the employer, profession and jurisdiction, but the knowledge you develop can support conversations and ambitions well beyond Canada.
Study 100% Online
The programme can be completed entirely online, allowing you to pursue an LL.M while staying connected to your work, family and community in Victoria. Your learning does not depend on moving abroad or travelling to a campus.
Online study also makes it easier to plan for your next step. The time needed to complete the programme depends on its requirements and your study plan, but you can work toward the degree from your current location.
Learn Without Scheduled Online Attendance
You do not need to be online at specific times and dates to attend classes. Instead, you can engage with your studies at times that work around your professional responsibilities and personal commitments.
That flexibility can be especially valuable when your colleagues, clients or collaborators work across time zones. Make space for focused learning when it suits you, while continuing to participate in the opportunities already around you.
Take Your Studies Wherever You Go
Your classroom can travel with you. Study from Victoria, elsewhere in Canada or almost anywhere your plans take you, whether you are away for work or exploring a new destination.
Through the mobile app, you can download study materials and watch lectures offline. It is a practical way to keep learning during travel, even when a reliable internet connection is not available.
Apply Ideas Through Open-Book Assessments
Rather than relying on classical question-and-answer exams, the programme uses open-book assessments. They give you an opportunity to work with course materials as you examine issues and develop your responses.
This approach encourages you to look beyond memorisation and focus on interpretation, research and reasoned argument—abilities that can remain useful long after you complete your degree.
Learn from Faculty with Global Academic Experience
Study with tutors and faculty whose academic backgrounds include world-renowned institutions such as Oxford, Harvard, EPFL, the University of Basel and Washington University in St. Louis. Their varied educational experiences bring breadth to the learning environment.
As you explore international business law, that range of perspectives can help you consider complex questions from more than one angle and develop the confidence to articulate your own informed views.
Join a Network That Crosses Borders
The student community includes people from over 130 countries. Learning alongside peers with different professional and cultural experiences can broaden your understanding of how business challenges are viewed around the world.
Alumni work for organisations including Seneca College, Lakehead University, Manulife, the United Nations, Google, ICRC, The World Bank, Microsoft, Intel, Samsung, Tencent, Siemens and Sony. Their paths illustrate the variety of sectors represented across the wider graduate community.
Plan Your Payments
Programme fees can be paid in up to 18 monthly interest-free instalments. This option can make it easier to plan your payments alongside your other commitments.
With a clear payment schedule, you can concentrate on the learning ahead: developing your understanding of international business law and considering where it might take you next.
Bring an International Perspective to Victoria
Victoria’s technology sector includes businesses with customers, suppliers and partners beyond Canada. An understanding of international commercial relationships can help graduates contribute more confidently to discussions about cross-border agreements, expansion and collaboration.
As a coastal city with connections to marine activity, tourism and trade, Victoria offers settings where organisations routinely engage with people and markets elsewhere. The programme’s internationally applicable theory can provide a valuable perspective on the relationships that support those activities.
Victoria is also home to public institutions, educational organisations and professional services whose work may connect with international partners. Whether you hope to deepen your current expertise or explore a new direction, the LL.M can help you approach global business questions with greater clarity.
