LLB(Hons) Law (with Foundation Year)

Why study law?

Law affects every aspect of human life, right down to the air we breathe.

It affects our relationships with each other, the state and other countries. It affects our education, employment, travel, property, health and human rights.

The legal landscape changes in line with societal needs. A law degree offers diverse career pathways and a skillset to help you succeed in almost any career.
