| Given that the number of countries with competition or antitrust laws increased from 31 to over 120 between 1985 and 2016, there is a growing need for legal specialists in this fascinating and ever-expanding area. This course is designed to give you the knowledge and skills to meet that demand, and go on to a successful career in the sector. On this interdisciplinary course, you will examine the issues, concepts and principles that underpin the substantive law on competition control and policy. You will explore the economic, social and political forces that continue to shape competition law development, and discover the role competition laws play within commercial relationships. UEA Law School boasts several competition law specialists, all of whom are members of the Centre for Competition Policy (CCP), a leading interdisciplinary research Centre located at UEA. |
