Law (two-year intensive) LLB (Hons)
This two-year intensive course is accredited as a Qualifying Law Degree in England and Wales by the Solicitors Regulation Authority and Bar Standards Board. This course provides exemption from the academic stage of qualification for both branches of the legal profession, making it the perfect option if you are intending to qualify as a solicitor or barrister.
This intensive LLB allows you to condense three years of study into two years, accelerating your career development.
The Law team is the current University of Northampton Changemaker Team of the Year. They received this award for their work in giving students as many opportunities as possible to make a difference in a range of communities such volunteering, our Street Law Project, the Pro Bono Clinic, setting up charities and so much more. The team were commended for “their commitment and passion to all their activities which provide law students with valuable exposure to real life experiences and situations and in no small way ensures that people with access to legal aid can gain justice”.
The two year intensive LLB (Hons) provides an alternative to the three year qualification, allowing you to graduate and fast track your career and move onto the next stage. The intensive degree enables you to complete your degree in two years by extending the academic year into the normal vacation periods. You will need a strong academic ability and time management skills in order to be able to cope with the demands of this course.
The attractions of a two-year intensive LLB include:
- accelerating your career by entering the job market earlier than your peers
- the ability to complete the LLB degree in two years, with the associated intensity of study and time management skills, will be attractive to employers
- change your career where you have the experience but need the qualification in a quicker time
- Our Law team has strong links with the local legal profession and visiting law firms and barristers provide you with career advice throughout your studies.
Campus Information
Waterside Campus
In the summer of 2018 the University of Northampton moved to the brand-new Waterside Campus. This seven-year project saw a neglected brownfield site transformed into a successful and impressive new campus that facilitated a radical re-engineering of the University in terms of both teaching methodology and governance structures. aterside is a waterfront site of 24 hectares on the edge of the town centre. Its successful completion has turned a derelict site into a leading facility in the higher education sector. The project brief emphasised integration, of the University into the town and local community, and of departments, facilities and teams within the University itself. New pedestrian and road bridges and cycle routes link the site to the town, and public facilities and commercial outlets are part of a Waterside experience which continues beyond the University to local historic buildings and parks.
