Malta’s maritime role has ensured that the study and practice of maritime law has flourished amongst the island’s legal profession.

The programme is designed to benefit professionals, including those in the most senior levels, who are involved in maritime practice both in the private and public sectors and who, because of their careers, are unable to be away from their jobs for any length of time in excess of a few weeks per year.

4. Short Courses

Teaching at IMLI on the LL.M. programme is based on the modular system. It is therefore possible for a small number of applicants to attend these modules as self-contained courses. These courses are open to non-lawyers. IMLI has also often been required by governmental and international bodies to organize specific short-term courses, which focus on subjects covered by its academic syllabus. In such cases, courses are tailor made to meet the specific requirements of the organizers and bring them the latest developments of the law in their areas of interest. Short courses are periodically announced on IMLI’s website and through the IMLI e-newsletter.

On request of the Armed Forces of Malta IMLI organized in 2009 a IMLI’s map represents the countries of origin of IMLI students course on the Law of the Sea which was attended by participants from different European and African countries

25 The LL.M. Programme

Studying at IMLI provides a unique opportunity to embrace the international nature of maritime law in a multicultural environment under the guidance of renowned professors and lecturers.

IMLI offers a specialized post-graduate programme leading to the award of the Degree of Master of Laws (LL.M.) in International Maritime Law. The programme consists of post-graduate education in nearly all areas of international maritime law, including the law of the sea, marine environmental law, international maritime security law, and shipping law. The programme is mainly addressed to lawyers, legal advisers, judges, and legal draftsmen whose duties encompass maritime issues and who are seeking specialization. The programme is also open to law graduates of any country who intend to pursue a legal career in the field of maritime law whether in the public or private sectors, whether in practice, administration or academia.

Although originally most suitable to candidates from developing countries, the programme has grown into a comprehensive and versatile curriculum accommodating the needs of students from around the world.

The teaching is delivered by the Institute’s resident Faculty as well as by eminent visiting fellows who are practitioners and academics of international repute in various fields of maritime law. The entire programme, particularly the teaching and the writing of examinations, dissertations, and projects, is in the English language.

26 Unique Nature of the LL.M. Programme

The Institute’s LL.M. programme provides students with specialized education in maritime law from an international perspective. Particular emphasis is placed on the study of shipping law, especially the international regulatory framework of maritime transport to ensure maritime safety, security and the protection of the marine environment. The programme also covers the commercial law aspects of shipping, including the carriage of goods by sea and marine insurance. Major part of the programme is dedicated to the teaching of public international law and law of the sea.

Unlike traditional programmes, the LL.M. programme offers a distinctive cross-national study of maritime law. The major systems of law in the world, including the civil law and common law systems, are comparatively considered in relation to maritime affairs. An international Faculty brings to the classroom the legislative and judicial experience of leading maritime jurisdictions.

The programme is also designed to provide training in the development and drafting of maritime legislation both from a theoretical as well as a practical perspective. Intensive drafting exercises are carried out taking into account both the international law on the subject and the national maritime policies and objectives.

IMLI prides itself on its international Faculty, composed of around 50 professors and lecturers drawn from leading international organizations, universities, and firms who visit the Institute throughout the academic year, bringing the latest developments directly to the classroom. A resident Faculty provides the day-to-day running of the programme and supervises the progress of students.

The LL.M. programme is an exciting cross-cultural journey as the Institute draws candidates from across the globe. IMLI promotes a spirit of mutual understanding and cooperation between cultures, paving the way for future collaboration between graduates in combining efforts towards the unification of international maritime law.

27 Main Beneficiaries of the Programme

The LL.M. programme is addressed to law graduates and legal professionals from around the world seeking specialization in maritime law at post-graduate level.

Candidates for the programme are usually officially nominated by their governments or national administrations. A small number of seats are also made available for independent candidates.

It is generally recognized that in a large number of developing States there are very few lawyers with specialized knowledge of maritime law. Consequently, the availability of well-trained maritime lawyers enables these States to review and update their maritime legislation in accordance with national policies and developments taking place at international level.

The comprehensive and interdisciplinary character of IMLI’s LL.M. programme equips graduates to serve as well in non- governmental organizations, such as in the legal departments of port authorities, shipping companies and organizations.
