LLB (Hons) Law and Legislative Studies
University of HullCottingham Road, Hull, HU6 7RX
Course overview
Work for an MP or a peer on a 12-month placement in Westminster as part of this specialised degree. You’ll gain in-depth exposure to British parliamentary procedures and behaviours as well as a thorough understanding of law and the political system. 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. Learn the legal ropes in our mock courtrooms and work on real cases such as employment tribunals in our Legal Advice Centre. Build your experience through mini-pupillages at Wilberforce Chambers, Crown Chambers and internships with local law firms and government.
Practise legal skills in our Student Law Society’s mooting and client interviewing competitions. Work with subject experts on a final-year research project in a legal topic of your choice. Rub shoulders with leading law firms at our yearly careers convention, too.
And we’ve partnered with University of Law to offer a series of Solicitors Qualifying Exam (SQE) postgraduate courses here at Hull, for those planning to progress into professional practice.
