BACHELOR OF LAWS (LLB)

  • Specialise in a single major law programme over four years, opening up excellent employment prospects in both law and non-law careers.
  • Acquire a thorough grounding in the fundamental areas of legal study and a broad range of specialist modules like Transnational Litigation, Civil Liberties, and Criminology.
  • Enhance employability by developing your faculties for argument, reasoning and for the analysis of complicated ideas.

Why choose this degree?

  • The LLB (MH501) is a four-year degree almost exclusively in law. It will be of particular interest if you wish to study law in depth and detail. MH501 provides you with a wider selection of law modules than MH502, the BCL, and is one year longer than the latter degree.
  • This law degree is accredited by the Honorable Society of the King’s Inns.
  • Students may apply to complete a work placement year in a law firm (subject to availability) or a year studying abroad at one of our international partner institutions.
  • This is an innovative programme with strong emphasis on the development of verbal and written advocacy skills through applied modules such as legal writing, negotiation, and dispute resolution.
  • Get involved in our numerous student societies: the student Law Society, European Law Students’ Association, or Student FLAC (Free Legal Advice Centre) Society.
