LLB Law Scots with French

University of Dundee

Course overview

The LLB Law (Scots) with French at the University of Dundee leads to a Postgraduate Diploma in Legal Practice, qualifying students to train as solicitors or advocates in Scotland. Alternatively, students may apply for a Dual Qualifying degree, allowing qualification to practise law in England, Wales, or Northern Ireland. Additionally, students will study one French module per semester, with options for beginners or those with prior experience.

Students will enjoy encouraging and supportive teaching, with a strong emphasis placed on group teaching by qualified lawyers. Teaching is done by lectures, tutorials, and independent and group study. Students will work more independently and take part in seminar discussions. In the final year, students will work on their dissertation, which is independent but supervised, on an elective topic. Assessment methods include presentations, moots, essay or drafting exercises, and tests on comprehension and interpretation of legal sources such as Acts of Parliament or case reports.
