Enhance your legal education with a global perspective through this rigorous and engaging dual program. This qualifying law degree maintains exemption from the academic requirements for becoming a barrister. Recognizing that law exists within broader contexts, you'll explore the worldwide political landscape along with the social and cultural dimensions of legal systems. The curriculum emphasizes legal studies, teaching you about legislative processes, the framework of the English legal system, and fundamental principles of both civil and criminal law. For the international relations component, first-year students receive foundational knowledge, followed by specialized modules in subsequent years. As a combined degree with set core requirements, elective choices are not available. This program equips graduates with sought-after expertise valued by employers in diverse sectors. Numerous alumni establish thriving legal careers, either as solicitors (after completing the LPC and securing training contracts) or as barristers (through the BPTC and Pupillage). Barristers may progress to independent practice or work as employed legal professionals.
