The Law LLB is the traditional route into the legal profession and gives you the freedom to explore the areas of law that most interest you with a wide variety of optional modules. It is an excellent stepping-stone to graduate level employment as a thought-provoking and challenging subject, giving you legal knowledge and transferable skills such as reasoning, research and problem solving. Your study will take a variety of approaches, including problem-solving, analysis of cases and statutes, examining the role of law within its social, economic and political context. The foundation subjects that you will study are required by the Bar Standards Board for progression to a bar course after your degree. They are also helpful as preparation for future qualification as a solicitor through the Solicitors Regulation Authority’s Solicitors Qualifying Exam. |
