Course detail

Competition Law has spread from country to country at a rapid rate and there are now over one hundred and thirty jurisdictions with established competition laws. King’s is committed to playing a leading role in both teaching and research all aspects of competition law. We have long-standing relationships with practitioners in many jurisdictions. Our faculty of competition lawyers, economists and officials remain close to competition law cases in the UK, EU, US and beyond. This is part of what makes King’s such an exciting atmosphere in which to study. You will find that Competition Law at The Dickson Poon School of Law is taught in a supportive environment that helps students develop their individual interest in the subject. We are also extremely proud of the ongoing contact we have with many of our students after they graduate and welcome them back regularly at alumni events in London, Brussels and beyond.

Teaching and assessment

In the first and second semester you study your selection of taught modules (half and full). These are in most cases assessed in the third semester (May/June) by written examination, or in some cases by the submission of an assessed essay. Dissertation or research essays must be submitted in September, after the May/June examinations.
