The Durham Law School Summer Course on International Arbitration was highly successful between 2022 and 2024, and is set to return in 2025. This course is designed for individuals looking to expand their skillset or discover a new field of practice. It also benefits scholars seeking to gain expertise in the application of concepts and norms in international arbitration, as well as students looking to gain exposure to international dispute resolution.
This was an excellent course delivered by the some of the most renowned arbitration practitioners. I would highly recommend this course for anyone considering or at the start of a career in international arbitration.
The course is taught by leading practitioners and arbitrators from around the world, with the goal of providing students a diverse perspective of international arbitration from various legal cultures and national backgrounds.
The four course co-directors include current arbitrators, practitioners and academics with a combined 100 years of experience in international commercial and investment treaty arbitration with leading global law firms.
The Durham Summer Course on International Arbitration welcomes both undergraduate and postgraduate students from any university, as well as professionals with an interest in the subject matter.
The course fee varies: GBP 850 for Durham University students, GBP 950 for students from other universities, and GBP 1650 for professionals. This fee covers all course materials, sessions, and event attendance including morning and afternoon refreshments, lunch, tea/coffee.
A GBP 100 non-refundable deposit is required for registration confirmation which will be deducted from the tuition fee. Full refunds (except deposit) are offered for cancellations made at least 14 business days before the course start date. Later cancellations are non-refundable, but participants will receive course materials and, if available, access to webcasts.

Upon completion of our Summer Course, you will be issued a certificate of completion. You must then check with the international office of your institution if you will be awarded credit for completing our Summer Course, but, in our experience, many institutions will allow this. Durham Law School will provide any necessary supporting evidence to help evaluate the worth of the course.
