Our degrees' programme of study are focused on international developments and issues, and our modules are geared towards fields of specialised study as well as the energy and natural resources sectors. Please see links for more details about the core modules: Energy Law & Policy - www.cepmlp.org/academic/FT-LLM-Energy%20Law%20and%20Policy.php Mineral Law & Policy - www.cepmlp.org/academic/FT-LLM-Min%20Law%20and%20Pol.php Petroleum Law & Policy - www.cepmlp.org/academic/FT-LLM-Pet%20Law%20and%20Pol.php If you need further clarification, please feel free to pm me!

As I am aware the best Universities in this area are Dundee and Aberdeen. I have already been admited to the LLM programme in Aberdeen, and I think I will be admitted in Dundee also (i hope). I really do not know which one offers the best LLM in the field of Petroleu Law / Oil and Gas. As I´ve been told, both Universities have "high quality" LLM´s, therefore I am having doubts in choosing between them. Aberdeen as well reputed Uni, and Dundee has been increasing its reputation also, so I expect the to have a similar level of education (however, Dundee LLm is about 10.000 pounds more expensive). Could someone advise on this issue? Thanks in advance. Ps: I have read all about professional expectations after the LLM, however, it was not clear to me if law firms related to energy law or energy companies use to seek LLM students for their staff. Please advise. Sat, 25 Apr 2009 00:54:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/69269/last#69676 I think that if your focus is oil and gas, Aberdeen is a better choice. It is well-known in the field and is close to the oil and gas commercial centre... But you have to keep in mind that it is for oil and gas only... Dundee's LLM programme has a much wider (not necessarily better) approach.
