LAWS3173 2028-29
Advanced Public International Law
International law is about governments collaboratively as well as competitively trying to regulate world affairs. It includes issues as diverse as a government’s treatment of its citizens (international human rights law), the circumstances in which a state can take military action against or in another state, and ongoing efforts to prevent catastrophic changes in the earth’s climate.
This module builds on LAWS 2035 Introduction to Public International Law by introducing you to the jurisdictional framework (in both spatial and conceptual senses) of the international legal order, the secondary obligations that arise when a primary one is breached and the rules on the resort to force. We will explore how, by whom, and with what results law has been used to shape or attempt to shape the world in which we live by constraining the conduct of states and other international actors. -

LAWS3129 2028-29
Advanced Public Law
Public law is of the highest importance to individuals, defining the institutions which exercise the power of the state, and setting the rules which govern their interaction in relation to each other and to individuals.
Though one of the defining characteristics of the United Kingdom’s constitutional order is its long heritage and remarkable stability, the last two decades have seen a number of significant changes in the constitutional sphere. An appreciation of the way in which public law has adapted in order to meet these changing circumstances, as well as the forces which are driving its further development, is of the highest importance to achieving a clear understanding of the nature of the state and the individual’s position in relation to it.
This module will communicate a picture of modern public law through the examination of those topics which are most relevant to its recent and on-going development. It addresses key areas which have driven constitutional development in recent years, such as the legal and constitutional crisis surrounding Brexit. -

PSYC3064 2029-30
Advanced Quantitative Research Skills
The Advanced Quantitative Research Skills module is focused on extending existing skills in analyzing data from quantitative research. The module consists of two parts. In the first part programming skills in R are being learned. In the second, students will learn the theoretical basis of regression and correlation at a deep level, and also learn how to practically conduct, for two predictors and an outcome, competitive, mediational, and moderational analysis, and appropriately interpret their results.
We strongly recommend students to have at least a 2:1 in PSYC2019 as PSYC3064 is an advanced statistics module and the materials covered in PSYC2019 will not be repeated but will be built upon. -
