What you will study
On our LLB Law course, you’ll gain a deep understanding of the main areas of legal knowledge, including law as it regulates
- The functions of the state (public law and criminal law)
- Relations between private individuals (contract law and tort law)
- The ownership and control of land and other property (land law, and equity and trusts).
In addition to these core subjects, after the first year you will have the option to study a range of topics with experts in their fields, including environmental law, international humanitarian law, medical law, and tax law, among many others.
All second-year law students are enrolled on a Professional Training Preparation module which enables you to develop key employability skills, complete a law-specific version of the University's Employability Award and hear from a wide variety of voices from practice (both legal and non-legal).
You will learn how to debate the law, to analyse its application to given situations and to apply your legal understanding in a national or international context. Further opportunities to develop your professional skills are provided through a series of extracurricular activities focusing on client interviewing, negotiation and mooting.
