• The Master’s in Transnational Rights and Security will appeal to graduates in Law, Criminology and International Relations and reflects the needs of students, employers and society.
  • The importance of balancing rights and security is very much a 21st Century global issue, and are considered in the programme. The 2015 terrorist attack on the Bataclan nightclub, in Paris, is one such instance where the balance of rights and security were put to the test.
  • The firearms used were supplied by organised crime groups and moved from Slovenia to France via Germany and Montenegro; the act itself was triggered by perceptions of religious intolerance and violations of human rights; the perpetrators fled across international borders, requiring international legal cooperation and the response was to bolster national security measures plus airstrikes on Raqqa by French Air Force.
  • The Master’s in Multinational Corporate Law, meanwhile, emphasises key elements of 21st Century multinational commerce. As globalisation increases, and with changes in trading relationships which may come about as a result of geopolitical factors, it is crucial for those running and working at higher levels within a business to have an understanding of the legal ramifications of business decisions.
