English term or phrase: LL.M.
I would like to see if somebody can give me a precise translation of the term LL.M into Spanish.

I am currently uddating my resume, and I am having difficulties to translate LL.M. or Master of Laws. My degree is also know as ILSP. International Legal Studies Program. As of today, in Spain, LL.M is far less known than an MBA (Master Business Administration)although it's well known in English spoken countries, and countries such as Germany and Holland

How about Master de Derecho Internacional.

Thanks

Jose

Master of Laws


Explanation:
Wikipedia leaves it like that in most of the languages,and I think you'd better levae it like that.After all,it is an English abbreviation,and English,unlike Gujarati,Hungarian,or tribal languages,is a language spoken worldwide.
So I wouldn't risk a (potentially wrong) translation.

I wonder what the colleagues think.
