Law with Business

If you're looking for a law degree that's different to anything else out there – we're the only 100% online provider offering an LLB (Hons) Law with Business, with no requirement to travel to assessment centres or complete timed examinations.

This course is suitable for individuals who are keen to pursue a legal career with a commercial focus or for those who want to understand the law to support their business aspirations. Our programme will prepare you in part for the new Solicitors Qualifying Exam (SQE), or to progress onto a Bar Practice Course if you wish to become a barrister. Your specialism in business will make you an asset to national and international corporations.

You'll gain a thorough grounding in the essentials of both law and business, including:

• civil and criminal aspects of the English Legal System
• the functions and importance of operations management
• legally enforceable contracts and the factors that render them unenforceable
• how a market economy functions and the role of government within it
• the establishment and management of trusts and complex property transactions

Your final project can focus on any topic within the scope of your studies and will include independent research and a detailed and succinct analysis of your chosen area of law. Alternatively, you can select from a range of advanced modules in specialist topics.

Entry requirements for undergraduate study

There are two different entry routes onto our undergraduate degrees: the academic entry route, and the work experience entry route.

The academic route is probably the best-known option, as it’s similar to the entry requirements for a brick-and-mortar university. You need at least two A-levels (or equivalent), with no specification of what subject or grade they should be.

The work experience route opens up the world of higher education to those without A-levels. You need GCSE Maths and English (grade A-C), plus three years’ work experience that is relevant to the field you wish to study.

What if you don’t meet these requirements but you’re still keen to study? That’s where our CertHE comes in! These courses have an open entry route, which means you don’t need any previous academic qualifications to start studying. This is a great route for those without a traditional academic background to progress onto the Bachelors degree.
