This programme is aimed at competition lawyers, both in-house and in private practice, and economists who may be new to competition law.

Following the Brexit decision, King’s College London has re-affirmed its total commitment to remaining a leader in EU law and in EU competition law. Enrol on this programme to ensure that you are in pole position to understand the changes as and when they happen – and to take advantage of any new opportunities that may appear.
The first unit covers the conceptual foundations of economics as applied to competition law.
The next two units cover the basic building blocks of economic analysis in competition law: market power and market definition. Units four to five look at economic issues that arise under Article 102, whilst units six and seven deal with Article 101.
These are followed by one unit on network effects and the boundaries of competition and intellectual property law, two units on mergers, one on state aid and one on empirical analysis.
Each unit will consist of text, suggestions for further reading; questions and model answers. The units are designed to give the reader a basic understanding of the economics of the topic in question.
You will qualify with a highly regarded Postgraduate Diploma from one of the top 10 UK Law Schools in the UK (QS World Rankings 2018)
Students who successfully complete the Postgraduate Diploma in Economics for Competition Law will have the option to carry their credits forward and top up to a King' College London Masters by distance learning. This masters top up will consist of a dissertation of between 12,000-15,000 words.
Competition lawyers will be aware of the importance that economic evidence and analysis plays in cases brought before the European Commission, national competition authorities and the courts.

The distance learning Postgraduate Diploma in Economics for Competition Law consists of three modules containing twelve units. It will commence on 1st October 2019 and will extend over eight months leading to an examination in May 2020.

Questions will be set at the end of each unit and model answers to these will be sent with the unit that follows. In addition, three compulsory assignments will be set during the programme which will count towards the final mark.
All students will be eligible to attend two optional weekend seminars. The first will be held around on 16th/17th November 2019 and the second on 14th/15th March 2020.
