About the course

Designed for professionals in private and public sectors, the Specialist Certificate in Global Competition Law builds and advances economic and legal knowledge for work in competition law. It covers foundational concepts including the historical development of competition systems, key policy objectives, and the role of economics in the design and application of competition law. The curriculum examines laws, policies and enforcement approaches in major jurisdictions (notably the United States and European Union) while also drawing on Asia-Pacific experiences, and is delivered fully online with interactive learning and expert teaching.

What you might learn

The course responds to the global growth of competition and consumer policy regimes and increasingly active enforcement worldwide. It aims to equip professionals with advanced competencies in legal and economic analysis relevant to competition policy and law. Students develop stronger problem-solving abilities to address complex competition law issues in both public and private sector contexts.

Career outcome

Graduates are prepared to pursue or advance careers involving competition and consumer law and policy in government agencies, regulators, international organisations, and private practice. The program supports roles that require analysing competition issues and advising on enforcement, compliance, and policy design across multiple jurisdictions. It is particularly relevant for legal and policy professionals working with market regulation, antitrust/competition investigations, and competition compliance in corporate or consulting environments.
