LLB Law

University of East London

Course overview

This is a four-year course that commences with one preparatory year (the Foundation Year) to help students gain confidence before joining the main law degree. This first year helps them get used to university life and build the important study skills they require for the next three years of the LLB. If students pass the foundation year, they go straight into the degree.

The Foundation Year teaches important abilities such as academic writing, critical thinking, and good communication. During the degree stage, lessons blend online study with active learning in the classroom. Students' grades will come from written assignments, exams, presentations, and practical legal tasks.
