LLB Law with Criminology With Founation Year
Course overview
The LLB Law with Criminology with Foundation Year at the University of Hull is a great option if you are interested in law and crime, but your school grades are not high enough for the normal three-year course. The first year (the foundation year) is an easier start. It helps you get better at studying, teaches you the basics of law and how society works, and builds your confidence so you are ready for the main degree.
You learn practically. You practise speaking in real-looking courtrooms, help real people with their legal problems at the university’s free advice centre (with teachers guiding you), and learn how to calm arguments in mediation rooms.
Lessons include big classes, small group talks, team projects, and lots of hands-on activities. Your work is assessed through exams, short quizzes, essays, presentations, pretend court cases (called moots), and a big final project about law and crime.
When you finish the University of Hull LLB Law with Criminology with Foundation Year, you get a full law degree that lets you train to be a solicitor or barrister, and you also understand crime much better, which helps you stand out when looking for jobs in courts, police, probation, or community work.
