I believe the cost is likely to be a total of &#A3;7,500 over the two years of the LLM, probably &#A3;5000 1st year and &#A3;2500 continuation fee, it will be fairly intensive with a lot of online small-group tuition (rather than the 'here's a reading list, go away and read this for two years' approach of much traditional DL). Modules will address various
communications & computer law issues, including internet law - what kind of thing are you particularly interested in?

Simon, thanks for your response. I am interested in the interface between tech and intellectual property. Please keep me in the know as to when application forms are ready. Btw, have you seen the Strathclyde programme? Check it out and let me know what U think.

Hi Paul - you should email itlaw@qmul.ac.uk to register your
interest, that way the forms will be sent to you when ready.

I'm aware of it - it's been running several years and has a good reputation. Its approach is a bit different from ours which focuses more on online interactive tutorials.

As a part of the “Legal Framework for the Information Society Initiative”, the Center for Legal Informatics of the University of Zaragoza has recently published on its web site a new Guide on Legal Informatics. Please visit
http://www.unizar.es/derecho/fyd/guide/guide.htm
This Initative emerges as a result of the wide-ranging experience jointly carried out by a number of European Universities. With the purpose of making their activities public and to strengthen the co-operation framework by inviting further universities to join the initiative, this Guide offers an overview of the main features and topics of the teaching in legal informatics at the Universities integrating the network. Moreover, an special section is devoted to announce forthcoming conferences and meetings on legal informatics and e-government.Furthermore this Guide presents the answers to questionnaires delivered among other universities which have a long-lasting tradition in research and teaching of legal informatics and e-government.

I am from malaysia. I am interested in pursuing LLM in Information Technology in UK . I appreciate if someone could give some opinion to help me in deciding between qmw and strathclyde. Both seem very good, but which one would be the best option.

Thanks.

Hi - I think our LLM is going to be very good, with a lot of online tutorial interaction via chatrooms & message boards, but it's still in development right now. We should be taking registrations from July, with an (optional) in-person weekend meeting for everyone taking the course in London in December before Christmas (chance for
Christmas shopping!) and the courses starting at the beginning of January - we're fitting the semesters to the calendar year, with spring and autumn teaching semesters and a summer semester
mostly for dissertations. Getting the LLM will involve amassing 12 credits, with 6-8 from 1-credit modules in various IT related topics and 4 or 6 from 2-credit written dissertations for which we'll provide supervisor support. It's expected that most people will do the LLM over 2 years part time, it's possible to do it in 1 year full time if you're particularly dedicated (doing 4 credits per semester, about 30 hours/week work over the full year).

-Simon

I'm attaching draft program specs for our LLM & Diploma in Computer & Communications Law. If it doesn't come through let me know and I'll email you a copy. Fees including VAT will be in the region of &#A3;4000 Diploma and &#A3;8000 LLM for the entire course, including a weekend residence in London, core textbooks, digitised materials, and
substantial tutor support. We are capping initial student registration at 50 students.
