LLB (Hons) Law

Here, you’re a professional-in-the-making from day one. A valued member of a tight-knit legal community. We use a range of real-world assessment methods – not just exams.

That way, you gain the practical skills and experience you need for whatever career you aspire to. You'll research and question the law in its social, moral and political contexts, and study specialities such as environmental law, new technologies, criminal justice, international law, commercial law, and family law.Our Real-World Law module offers a range of pro bono legal opportunities in your second year to put what you've learned into practice. Here, you'll develop your knowledge and experience with law professionals in the workplace and lay the foundations for working with subject experts on a final-year research project of your choice.

Further opportunities to bring your law skills to life include mock trials, Student Law Society mooting and client interviewing competitions. You can also build experience with mini-pupillages at Wilberforce Chambers, Crown Chambers and internships with local law firms and government. Or work with legal professionals in our Legal Advice Centre - all to set you up for your first graduate law job.

You could study abroad at one of our highly ranked partner institutions. You’ll have the chance to meet leading names from the world of law at our Annual Law Convention. We also run a Careers in Criminal Justice fair annually, where you’ll have the chance to network with regional and national employers.
