What will I learn?

Cybercrime. Cryptocurrencies. Artificial intelligence. Blockchain. Data protection. Investigate the legal challenges created by the evolving digital world on our artificial intelligence, digital and cyber law course.

We’ll teach you how to understand and regulate cyberspace and the world of AI. Discover how to regulate digital financial crime and serious organised crime online. Explore the rules relating to AI, digital platforms and develop specialist knowledge of online regulations and governance.

You’ll debate how well international agencies regulate digital platforms and personal data. You’ll analyse current legal and regulatory frameworks and explore the connections between society, information technology and cyberspace.

Our team of experts in artificial intelligence, digital and cyber regulation, as well as our highly qualified policing team, bring their real-world experiences of regulating and and investigating cyberspace and AI into the classroom.

We also help you find relevant work experience so you can put your knowledge into practice. This could be in an appropriate legal practice or in a relevant role in an IT company or online platform.

Throughout the course, you’ll develop a deep knowledge of the issues surrounding current and emerging technology as you become an expert in AI, digital and cyber law.

Your future career

By the end of this course, you’ll be ready to take your specialist knowledge straight into the legal profession. You’ll understand how to defend rights infringements. You’ll also have expertise in intellectual property rights, data privacy rights, and access and authorisation rights. All of these skills are highly sought after by independent legal practices.

Perhaps you’ll decide to go into business. Your skills will open doors to compliance roles with IT company legal departments or at industry regulatory bodies. Or start a career in law enforcement. Cybercrime policing units are another avenue after completing our LLM Artificial Intelligence, Digital and Cyber Law.

Other graduates from this course choose an academic path. You could go into specialist legal research or study for a PhD.

You’ll graduate with a set of transferable legal and personal skills. You’ll be able to find, identify, assess and apply rules to solve complex regulatory problems in other areas. You’ll be ready for roles needing responsibility, independent working, strong communication and flexibility.
