Course Overview

Employers are very interested in law graduates who are tech-savvy both in terms of awareness of legal matters in technology but in terms of how technology is coming to operate within the profession (such as for research and also for promotional purposes). The School of Law aims to address that gap, through an employer-partnered LLM program in Law and Technology that introduces students to the interplay of and interfaces between technology and law.

This innovative and employment-focused program draws on the School of Law’s substantial experience in technology, e-governance and innovation, in terms of law’s role in regulating technology and technology’s role in transforming governance and legal practice.
