Overview

Following the foundation year, the syllabus of this course is identical to its sister course [ LLB Law, M100 ]. This twenty-first century LLB Law degree encompasses a range of traditional and contemporary legal subjects and will deliver the skills and competences that will make you ‘career ready’ and enhance your employability in a legal context. LLB Law is a practical law degree designed to meet employer needs and is taught by experienced legal professionals and academics who are active for large organisations such as GRETA, the Youth Justice Board, and the United Nations Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights. Upon completion, you will be eligible to continue your legal training along the Solicitors Qualifying Examination (SQE) route, or the Bar Professional Training Course (BPTC). Successful completion of particular modules will grant you exemption from certain professional examinations. We also offer a number of modules specifically designed to prepare you for the SQE and its mode of assessment. LLB Law offers a number of options, including the opportunity to do a work placement module in different areas of law, or to study abroad in the second year at one of our many partner universities in Europe, USA, Canada and Australia. During your degree, you will be able to take advantage of excellent social and professional opportunities such as visits to Law Fairs and Inns of Court in London. You will have the opportunity to enhance your studies by participating in our national and international competing Mooting Society to develop your key advocacy and litigation skills. We also offer a Welsh medium Mooting competition for students who wish to moot through the medium of Welsh. Department of Law and Criminology lecturers are mostly either qualified to PHD level or have professional experience and qualifications as practicing lawyers. Many staff also have a PGCE (Higher Education).

English language

As the USA teach through the medium of English and English is used widely for administrative purposes, it is expected that nationals from the States would not be required to have an English Language qualification. They are, therefore, exempt from providing proof to meet the UK Visa and Immigrations requirements and the University's requirements for English language ability. American citizens, and/or those who have successfully graduated from a NARIC recognised American institution, there is no language requirement for PG study.
