"I really like the teaching methods. We had classes in small groups that enabled me to participate easily and ask more questions to the Professors. Also, we had to do several oral presentations and this exercise was a good way to prepare us for the working life. Now, I feel ready to work in international law firms both in France and in the United Kingdom.

Beside the courses, I did a lot of sport as the fitness rooms of the University are well equipped and there are many parks around the University. Finally, the University is at the heart of the West End and not far from the city centre, so I could take full advantage of the Scottish lifestyle at the local pubs and restaurants!" Mathilde Ayel, France (2011/2012)

"The University is not only beautiful from the outside, but offers a variety of courses in the field of Competition Law that makes sure you spend the year with subjects your really interested in. Most courses were organized in small groups which added to a unique study experience. I was amazed by the internationality of the courses and the student community and soon found new friends from all over the world. The staff have always been very approachable, friendly and helpful and created a great atmosphere that made it easy to feel at home from the start." Judith Krainz, Germany (2011/2012)

“I decided to study in the School of Law at the University of Glasgow because of the LLM International Competition Law and Policy. It was the subject combination (IP and competition law) and the international approach taken towards these areas of law which attracted me most about the programme. I am very happy with my choice which is due to the teaching method and atmosphere in class, the lecturers and university staff and of course because I enjoy the subject – and also: where else do you have the opportunity to study at a University which looks just like Hogwarts?! One other thing I enjoyed a lot during my time at the School of Law and in Glasgow was getting to know people from all around the world and making new friends.” Jessica Frances Maier, UK (2010/2011)

“Being an LLM student means a lot of work, but also a lot of fun! There is a wide variety of courses to choose from, so I was assured I could spend a year on subjects I really liked.

The School organises all sorts of events for the students and generally creates an atmosphere that makes it easy for foreigners to feel at home right from the start.” Babette Kacholdt, Germany (2009/2010)
