LLB Law with Politics and International Study

Our LLB Law with Politics and International Study course is a joint honours degree that provides you with a broad understanding of politics and law from a national and international perspective.

Our expertise in these fields makes Manchester an especially good place to study. You'll expand your ability to think globally and consider comparative approaches to worldwide interconnected issues during your year at one of our partner institutions.

The Law part of the course provides a solid and comprehensive grounding in key legal principles, as well as enabling you to specialise in particular areas of interest in later years.

In the Politics part of the course, we introduce you to leading approaches in areas such as international relations and European politics, as well as core political theoretical concepts. Building on this foundation, you're free to follow your particular interests within the field of politics.

Alongside enhanced skills in legal reasoning, you will develop the intellectual ability and flexibility to readily assimilate new ideas and materials from a variety of legal and political sources.

The skills and knowledge you gain will have far-reaching relevance for your future career, whether in the field of law, international relations or a variety of other social science disciplines.

You'll apply for the International Exchange Programme in your second year of study.

In your third year, you will study abroad at one of our partner universities, following the selection process in year 2. The year abroad will give you a unique experience and broaden your horizon. This academically rewarding and culturally enriching experience will challenge your existing knowledge by introducing you to new perspectives and ideas.
