Hiya @quisieraserluna!

Essex is Top 50 for Law in The World University Rankings by Subject 2023 and Top 3 in UK for research power in Law (Times Higher Education research power measure, REF2021).

Not only Essex is one of the best established human rights law courses in Europe with great reputation but also has a large and ever growing network for human rights alumni working in international organizations, national governments, and NGOs around the world.

Your academics included former UN Special Rapporteurs, members of UN treaty bodies, the UK member of the UN Human Rights Committee, , a member of the Government's new Advisory Group on Human Rights.
We are also advisers to a range of international organisations (like the OHCHR, UNHCR and WHO), as well as to NGOs around the world, and litigators before national courts, regional human rights commissions and courts, international courts and tribunals, and the UN treaty bodies.
