Law with Business Management (with Study Abroad)

Discover the complex relationship between law and business.

Choose this course if you want to gain an understanding of the fundamentals of two fascinating specialities - offering you the opportunity to gain insight into commercial law, business management, the economy and global environment, alongside all the core legal topics you'd find within a law degree - and laying a strong foundation for a future career within law or as a business professional.

You get the chance to provide real legal advice to real clients at our Legal Advice Centre - meaning you could be helping parents regain contact with their children, advising clients on divorce and property rights, and assisting with appeals against benefits decisions.

You could get involved in rewarding volunteering projects, such as the Appropriate Adult scheme - as well as have the opportunity to take part in internships with local law firms and government, and mini-pupillages with Wilberforce Chambers.

Our mock law court is a great place to hone your debating skills, and our Student Law Society organises regular mooting competitions, client interview practice and social events.

Plus, our yearly careers convention lets you rub shoulders with leading law firms like Gosschalks, Rollits, rradar, Pepperells, Andrew Jackson Solicitors, and more.

Extend your studies by spending a year abroad at one of our partner institutions.
