The Graduate Diploma in Law specialising in International Law, is a program for lawyers. One aspect of globalisation has been the increased impact of international law on an ever-expanding range of state activities - hardly any subject matter these days remains insulated from international norms or regulation, ranging from travel and communication, personal rights and liberties, commerce, access to food, medicine and culture, the environment, terrorism or security.

The International Law program is aimed at assisting those who wish to acquire a better understanding of the rules and standards that affect international affairs and international trade, current or prospective public servants in a variety of government departments whose work involves consideration of international relations and transactions, and anyone interested in or involved with the work of international or non-governmental organisations, human rights bodies and similar entities.
