Jevons Institute for Competition Law and Economics

The Jevons Institute aims to attract high quality students and researchers to UCL. It will do so in part through offering prizes, scholarships and placement opportunities to its best research, LLM and LLB candidates each year in co-operation with some of its donors and friends.

Antitrust and regulation courses at UCL are designed to study and evaluate laws, regulations and judicial enforcement, as well as state action and public policies aimed at maintaining competitive business conducts and market structures.

• EU Competition Law (LLM)
