The Institute’s hallmark programme is the Master of Laws (LL.M) programme which covers the whole spectrum of international maritime law. This intensive programme is held over one academic year (from October to June), and features taught courses, research work, and a number of field trips. 


The programme provides students with a 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 a detailed study of public international law, international law of the sea, international maritime security law and maritime legislative drafting. Unlike traditional programmes, IMLI`s LL.M. programme offers a distinctive international study of maritime law. Major systems of law in the world, including the civil and the common law systems, are comparatively considered in relation to maritime affairs.
