Law with Politics, LLB (Hons)

The LLB Law with Politics degree at Swansea University is a specialised programme that combines the study of law with an in-depth exploration of political systems, governance, and the dynamics of power. Grounded in a commitment to academic excellence, and informed by research, the programme combines both theory and practice, enabling you to gain a detailed understanding of how legal frameworks operate within broader political, social, and economic contexts, while critically examining the role of law in shaping governance and public policy. You will gain a comprehensive understanding of the foundations of legal knowledge, including Contract Law, Tort Law, Criminal Law, Public Law, Land Law, Equity and Trusts, and EU Law. These core subjects satisfy the academic stage of training required by the Bar Standards Board, and provide a strong basis for those wishing to take the Solicitors Qualifying Examination. As you progress you can develop specialist expertise in political topics such as g lobal environmental politics and British public policy, allowing you to pursue your interests while developing specialist expertise across two complementary disciplines.

We require a minimum IELTS score of 6.0 overall (with a minimum of 5.5 in each component) or equivalent English language qualification. Please see the Swansea University admissions English language requirements page for a full list of accepted qualifications and tests.
