Artificial Intelligence, Digital and Cyber Law with Professional Placement LLM

Edge Hill University

The LLM Artificial Intelligence, Digital and Cyber Law with Professional Placement offers you the opportunity to combine advanced legal study with substantial professional experience.

In Year 1, you will complete the taught elements of the programme alongside a dedicated ‘Preparation for Placement’ module ( non-credit bearing), which includes an employability skills gap analysis, participation in an assessment centre, reflection and action planning, and the development of a professional CV and LinkedIn profile.

In the second year, you will undertake a 30-week professional placement between September and May, enabling you to apply your academic learning in a real organisational environment, develop professional and managerial competencies, and build evidence of your contribution to the workplace. The placement is supported through academic supervision, structured reflection, employer feedback, and a professional portfolio, allowing you to connect your legal, digital and cyber expertise with practical experience.

By the time you graduate, you’ll have developed the knowledge, confidence and hands-on experience to succeed in a competitive environment, supported by a clearer professional profile and career plan.
