LLB Law with Psychology

The LLB Law with Psychology at Bangor University explores two fascinating disciplines that both deal with human behaviour. Psychology seeks to understand and modify our actions, while the purpose of law is to control them.

 

Studying LLB Law with Psychology from Bangor University gives you a unique perspective on juvenile, civil, and criminal justice systems. For example, understanding the criminal personality could inform crime prevention and punishment, and behavioural psychology can shed insight on common social issues that lead to law-breaking, such as violence or substance abuse. Studying two complementary subjects simultaneously provides a broader education that can ultimately expand your career options upon graduation.

 

You will graduate with a Law degree that meets the academic requirements for qualification as a barrister (Bar Standards Board compliant) and provides essential knowledge for aspiring solicitors. As well as being a stepping stone to a legal career, this degree develops practical competencies valued by employers outside the legal profession, including research and diagnostic skills, an analytical mind, the ability to listen, form sound arguments, and quickly process complex information.

 

Teaching methods for an LLB in Law with Psychology at Bangor University vary according to the subject matter and level of the module, and include a combination of lectures, tutorials, and one-to-one supervision. The assessment will involve a mix of methods, including examinations, essays, case studies, report reflections, and oral advocacy.
