Law (Graduate Entry)
University of LiverpoolLiverpool, United Kingdom
Course overview
The Law (Graduate Entry) LLB is designed for non-law graduates looking to fast-track their legal education. Study at one of the oldest law departments in the UK and explore the legal issues that shape society today and in the future. Delivered at a research-rich law school, our accelerated two-year LLB programme, provides a Qualifying Law Degree (QLD)—a first step toward professional qualifications like the Solicitors Qualification Examination (SQE) or Bar Practice Course (BPC).
It’s an ideal choice for those who want to open doors to the legal profession and enhance career prospects, whether in law or beyond. Our Law (Graduate Entry) LLB will give you a deep understanding of legal concepts and their real-world applications. You won’t just study the law – you’ll explore its impact and the bigger questions it raises.
With a mix of teaching methods and a supportive learning environment, you’ll be encouraged to think critically and challenge ideas. You’ll be taught and supervised by world-leading experts in the subject area, and in your second year, you’ll have the opportunity to shape your studies around your own interests and ambitions. The skills you’ll gain will serve you well across many fields.
From critical thinking and analysing risks to problem-solving, this degree sharpens your ability to navigate complex issues. It’s not just for future lawyers—it’s valuable in business, professional services, politics, mediation, communications and social justice too. This course is for those who already have a non-law degree-level qualification and wish to obtain a legal education through a two-year accelerated programme of study.
