Course Description

You will be able to develop your legal skills and understanding whilst dividing your time equally between law and another subject. Law permeates and affects culture and society, and is a perfect complementary field of study to many other subjects. Studying law at 50% works particularly well with a number of other programmes in the humanities and social sciences, for example criminology, business and politics. Please note that if you opt for a 50: 50.(Joint) programme involving Law (programmes titled "Law and", these do not satisfy the academic requirements of becoming either a barrister or solicitor. You will graduate with a BA (Hons). It is also not possible to increase the Law component of a 50/50 programme at the end of your first or second year, due to the requirement to complete specific modules as part of an LLB. If you choose a 75:25 "Law with" programme, you will graduate with a LLB (Hons).
