About the Courses

At the heart of this course is the idea that future lawyers will need to have knowledge of national, European and international laws and institutions. Our modern LLB (Hons) Law with Politics programme is designed to provide you with a thorough foundation of legal knowledge, whilst also equipping you with transferable skills needed for your future career. As a Law with Politics student you will study the foundations of English Law and will specialise in politics. You will study a rich and diverse range of modules from Contemporary US Politics to International Law.

You’ll be embarking on an immersive learning experience, with opportunities to practise your mooting and negotiation skills in our on-campus Moot Court Room, provide legal advice to the community in our Law Clinic or act as a criminal defence lawyer in our ‘Crime House’.

You will also benefit from being taught by current and former legal practitioners and internationally recognised academics and can take advantage of our extensive industry links.

At our School, we pride ourselves on providing not only an excellent academic experience but also a supportive environment where you can thrive. We offer a broad range of extra-curricular activities to enhance your university experience, which includes Work Placement opportunities, Careers Fairs, Insight Days, Panel Events, our Student Law Society, Politics Lab, wellbeing weeks, commercial awareness programmes, opportunities to participate in external competitions and educational visits to Inns, conferences and courts of law, such as the UK Supreme Court and the International Court of Justice in The Hague.
