It is designed to provide a major learning resource for lawyers and business people. It will recruit students from Spain and the rest of Europe but also internationally. The programme is designed to meet the specific needs of professional lawyers who may be seeking to expand their practice in the field of Maritime Law, and also to meet the complementary needs of shipping executives who have to understand the complex legal issues which context their commercial enterprise. The Teaching Programme The rationale of the course is that the Law of England and Wales is the legal system which provides the basic reference underpinning all International Shipping Law, and is the universally preferred jurisdiction in respect of maritime disputes. A full balance of academic, legal and commercial expertise is represented in the composition of teaching team, whose members are drawn from the Law Departments of leading British universities and Law firms which specialise in Maritime, Shipping and Transport Law. In addition to lecture presentation and seminar discussion, teaching arrangements will include role play.
