Should I Pursue an MBA or LLM After My LLB?
Ans: Hello Sarath,
To begin with, thank you for contacting us. I am happy to know that your daughter is about to complete her 5 year LLB course. To answer your question first, I would like to tell you that your daughter’s professional objectives, interests, and future ambitions, will determine whether she pursues an MBA (Master of Business Administration) or an LLM (Master of Laws) post completing a 5-year LLB program. If your daughter intends specializing in a specific field of law, such as human rights, intellectual property law, international law, or corporate law, an LLM is a great option. Your daughter’s knowledge can be enhanced and her competitiveness in the legal profession can be increased by pursuing this degree. On the other hand, if business, management, or corporate leadership is what interests your daughter, she can think about pursuing an MBA as this degree can help her develop these abilities. It broadens your daughter’s employment opportunities beyond traditional legal practice as well as is advantageous for business consulting, corporate strategy, or management positions.
You would be glad to know that there are a number of prominent universities abroad that are renowned for LLM. They are Yale Law School, Harvard Law School, and Stanford Law School in the USA. In the UK, prestigious universities like University of Oxford, London School of Economics (LSE), and University of Cambridge offer top-tier programs. In addition to the ones mentioned above, other prestigious international choices include National University of Singapore (NUS), Melbourne Law School in Australia, New York University (NYU) School of Law, and Leiden University in the Netherlands. Renowned for their outstanding legal education, these universities provide a range of legal specializations.
