LLB LAW WITH AMERICAN LAW

The LLB (Hons) in Law with American Law offers an exciting opportunity to combine a qualifying law degree with a broader educational and cultural experience.

Although the US legal system originates from the English common law it has developed in markedly different ways. Its study provides a comparative element to your legal education and an insight into the politics, history, and culture of the United States. As well as taking two American Law modules at UEA, you will spend your third year at one of our partner law schools in the US. At the end of this four-year course, you will obtain an English qualifying law degree and have a good understanding of the US legal system, making this course an attractive prospect for those intending to enter the legal profession.

You will start your degree by establishing the building blocks of legal knowledge. At the same time, you will begin to cultivate important skills, such as reasoning, research, and writing, formulating convincing arguments, negotiating and working as part of a team.

The point of legal study is not simply to memorize the law but to be able to engage with it skillfully. As such, many of the skills you will develop are transferrable and will be valuable to you within or beyond a career in law.
