A web database of Current Legal Research Topics being pursued by postgraduate law students based in the United Kingdom. Database entries record the subjects of research currently being pursued (i.e. provisional dissertation titles) by students registered for research degrees in law at higher education institutions in the UK. Researchers can search the database by: word(s)in the dissertation title; subject keywords or the name of a jurisdiction; name of student and name of University. Additionally researchers can also browse by broad subject categories such as: administrative law, company law, or intellectual property. The service has been created as a research project by staff at the Institute of Advanced Legal Studies Library and made freely available on the IALS website. It aims to "provide postgraduate students (who are undertaking or thinking of undertaking a PhD or MPhil) and their supervisors and law schools with a comprehensive listing of legal research currently undertaken in British law schools at MPhil or PhD level." The database continues a printed List of Current Legal Research Topics last published in 1988. The library plans to update this database annually.
