The Institute’s Library was set up in 1989, concurrently with the establishment of the Institute. At present, its holdings include most of the major textbooks in the fi eld of international maritime law. During recent years, the Library has expanded its acquisition of texts on different legal systems as part of the Institute’s endeavors to develop it into a comparative maritime law library. The purchasing of new books has been streamlined to ensure that all major areas of international maritime law are adequately represented in forthcoming orders.

Apart from the acquisitions made by the Institute and the book donations obtained from different law fi rms, institutions, organizations and distinguished personalities, the Library has been annually expanding its collection of national maritime legislation donated by students.

The Library holdings are organized in a user-friendly manner following the LL.M. Programme structure. The Library has a comprehensive Book section, Law Reports section, Periodicals section, and research and internet access facilities.

24 25 IMLI

PROGRAMMES AND COURSES

Class of 2006-2007

24 25 Programmes and Courses The Institute offers three types of programmes and courses:

1. Master of Laws in International Maritime Law

The Institute’s hallmark programme is the Master of Laws (LL.M.) in International Maritime Law. The main purpose of the programme is to train legal advisers in relevant areas of international maritime law, including the law of the sea, marine environmental law, and shipping law. The duration of the LL.M. Programme is one academic year, beginning in mid-September and ending in May of the following year. The programme is intensive and features taught courses, research work, and a number of fi eld trips. Particular emphasis is placed on the acquisition by students of legislative drafting skills.

2. Ph.D. Programme

The Institute offers a Ph.D. Programme leading to the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in International Maritime Law based on a dissertation of no more than 100,000 words. The duration of the research undertaken must be between three to fi ve years and it can be largely undertaken from abroad.

3. Advanced Diploma in International Maritime Law

The Institute launched in 2005 the Advanced Diploma in International Maritime Law. The programme is designed to benefi t 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.

IMLI has often been required by governmental and international bodies to organize specifi c short-term courses, which focus on subjects covered by its academic syllabus. In such cases, courses are tailor made to meet the specifi c requirements of the organizers and bring them the latest developments of the law in their areas of interest.

26 27 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 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, and shipping law. The programme is mainly addressed to lawyers, legal advisers, judges, and legal draftsmen and women 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 fi eld 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 focus of the programme is “the rule of international maritime law”.

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

26 27 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 law of maritime transport to ensure maritime safety 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 as well as public international law and law of the sea.

Unlike traditional programmes, the LL.M. Programme offers a distinctive cross- national study of maritime law. 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 fi rms 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 unifi cation of international maritime law.

28 29 Main Benefi ciaries 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 offi cially 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 the IMLI LL.M. Programme equips graduates to serve in non-governmental organizations as well, such as in the legal departments of port authorities, shipping companies and organizations, providing advisory legal services to Governments and shipping concerns.
