Course Overview

Our professional practice-focused LLB Law course will give you a thorough grounding in the law across all the major disciplines and the opportunity to develop your career and professional skills at the same time.

As well as developing in-depth legal knowledge and academic skills, there is a strong emphasis on experiential learning and legal education for professional practice and the enhancement of professional career prospects.

We offer opportunities for all undergraduate students to undertake a work placement, internship, or work experience, including in our Legal Advice Clinic, during our core Working in the Law Module. The course is the first step on the journey to becoming a Solicitor, Barrister, or Chartered Legal Executive, as well as the foundation for a broad range of other professional careers.

It is designed to give students a “Head Start” on professional qualification, particularly for the Solicitors Qualifying Examination with its focus on knowledge of the law, professional procedure, and skills. As part of our assessment strategy, we use a broad range of assessments, including professional examination-style multiple-choice questions, so our students have an opportunity to practice and prepare for them in advance.
