Course summary

This degree allows you to learn about how and why law is created and changed, and how it operates as a social institution. You’ll gain expertise in analysis, research, logical argument and more, as you develop an understanding of key topics within the legal sector. At the same time, you will develop your French language skills and, through a third year studying law at one of our partner institutions, learn about a legal system that is very different to that of England and Wales.

Through core and optional legal modules, you’ll examine the broader context of the law and its relationship with society. You might develop your interests in specialist legal areas including company law, employment law, human rights law, media law, environmental law and family law. You could also explore topics in criminal justice and criminology, such as policing or youth crime.

Throughout the course you’ll gain diverse skills that will be valuable to you as a global citizen, as well as in your professional career – whether you choose to enter the legal profession or not.

The School has four world-leading research centres specialising in Business Law, Criminal Justice, Legal Education and Social Justice, with staff from those Centres teaching across a range of Undergraduate and Postgraduate programmes. You’ll have the opportunity to be taught by some of those staff, and will also have the opportunity to apply to explore the practical application of law through our award-winning Community Engagement (pro bono) opportunities.

Contextual admissions

Universities and colleges consider more than grades when assessing applications and may make offers based on a range of criteria. Learn more about contextual offers.

If the most common grade accepted is higher than our entry requirements, this is due to the attainment of our applicants. If you have been made an offer and you meet or exceed the grades of your offer, you will be accepted.

If grades lower than our entry requirements have been accepted, in most cases this is because we operate contextual admissions as part of our decision making, which considers factors beyond grades. For more information about contextual admissions, please visit our website.
