Law and Legal Practice MA

If you hold an undergraduate degree in a non-law subject and are considering a career in the legal profession, our MA Law (Conversion) with Legal Practice offers a fast-track route into the field, combining academic depth, professional relevance, and critical legal training. Our conversion course is your pathway into the legal profession and will equip you with the skills and knowledge you need to become practice-ready. Designed for graduates in non-law disciplines, the Masters will introduce you to different areas of law. You’ll gain an insight into the diverse career opportunities open to you, including through further study to qualify as a solicitor or barrister. Using real-world and simulated scenarios, you’ll practise interviewing clients, drafting contracts, and offering advice on complex legal problems and disputes. We’ll cover advocacy skills too and get you to present arguments in front of a judge in our mock courtrooms.
