Bachelor of Laws LLB (Hons) (Accelerated)

Perhaps you would like to study Law, but you want to complete your studies in two years, instead of the traditional three? Then our LLB Accelerated degree is the course for you. If you opt to study on our accelerated route, you will fast track your studies by starting in September and then study over two years including throughout the summer. This means that you not only enter the jobs market quicker, but you have the potential to save on living costs during your studies.

The program offers a unique approach to teaching and learning, adopting a flipped classroom model that increases flexibility by providing a permanent online resource to support you and encourage your learning journey. By studying with us, you'll be able to develop skills such as legal drafting (contractual clauses, defense statements), and advocacy (interim and junction applications) alongside developing your knowledge in the foundations of law. This course will provide you with an excellent foundation to pursue a legal career.

Work placement

Due to the nature of the 2 year accelerated degree, you will be unable to undertake a Work Placement or Study Abroad program whilst studying on this course.
