    About

    Course description

    Why study this course?

    Foundation for your career

    If you plan to be a barrister, our LLB degrees satisfy the 'foundations of legal knowledge' set by the Bar Standards Board. If you plan to be a solicitor, you can also complete your Solicitors Qualifying Examination (SQE) with the University of Law, right here.

    Real-world experience


    Do real client work, advise start-ups and small businesses, investigate possible miscarriages of justice and offer advice that can make a positive difference to the people of Sheffield, all through our many schemes.

    Research-led teaching experience

    Work with international experts in the field of law, and experience learning informed by research rated as ‘world-leading’ and ‘internationally excellent.’

    Cultivate your critical understanding of modern English law, how it works in our society, how it develops over time, and how the practice of law can change people’s lives.

    From the foundations of legal knowledge in your first year, you’ll build this degree around your passions and career aspirations in years two and three – choosing from modules like international law, human rights, or criminal law and evidence.

    With law at Sheffield, you have the option to study your third year abroad in one of our many partner universities, for an insight into another legal system. And you can gain real-world experience right here, with Sheffield’s pro bono schemes.

    The spine of this degree is the Core Legal and Study Skills module, which runs through all three years and introduces you to mooting, employability workshops and study skills sessions. Because we want you to build confidence in these areas, this module isn’t part of your final grade.

    Whatever way you customise this degree, you’ll ultimately graduate with the expert knowledge and skills you need to enter the legal profession.
