LLB Law with Sociology

The LLB Law with Sociology at Bangor University offers a unique opportunity to study key areas of sociology and social policy that affect the law, including policing, sentencing, court systems, housing, welfare, and immigration. You will acquire new knowledge and understanding of the principles and values of law and justice, and you'll learn how law can be used to benefit individuals and societies, including the most marginalised in the community.

Studying LLB Law with Sociology from Bangor University ensures you cover fundamental legal principles alongside major social issues. You will study the fundamental areas of legal knowledge, such as Public Law (how the country is organised and run), Criminal Law (the punishment and rehabilitation), and Contract Law (the operation of legal agreements). In addition, you will have the opportunity to study Sociology topics such as From Cradle to Grave, World Poverty and Inequality, and Race, Democracy, and Political Ideology.

Throughout your studies, you will acquire the academic knowledge and be introduced to the skills required to pursue a legal career, should you wish to go on to qualify as a solicitor or barrister. You will be actively involved in your learning, meaning you won't just sit and read. You will practise skills like debating, arguing a case (advocating), and negotiating through different modules and activities outside of class.
