Course summary

Legal firms around the world are expanding on an international scale. Join us to experience life in a different country, study law in a different jurisdiction and diversify your legal portfolio beyond the UK.

In your first year, you’ll study the core principles of law. We’ll teach you how to read and apply legal documents, such as Acts of Parliament, EU legislation and case reports. Then you’ll have to chance to explore a range of specialist fields. You might look at human rights law, intellectual property or medical negligence.

Law beyond London

What makes this degree different? This four-year programme follows the same structure as our traditional Law LLB. However, you’ll spend an extra year studying abroad. Pick from our prestigious partner universities in Europe. Or go further afield to North America, South America, Asia, Australia, or New Zealand.

Your year abroad will give you a chance to explore a different legal system and expand your general legal expertise. Studying abroad also means you’ll benefit from different opportunities to boost your employability like law clinics or participation in societies outside the UK. All of this extra knowledge and experience will help you reach your potential back in London and beyond.

The minimum academic requirement is to achieve 60 credits overall, with 45 credits at Level 3, all of which must be at Distinction.

Pearson BTEC Level 3 National Extended Diploma (first teaching from September 2016)

Queen Mary University of London welcomes applications from students currently studying Level 3 BTEC qualifications and will consider you for entry to the majority of our undergraduate courses. The typical entry requirements will vary according to the course you are applying for.

Some of our courses require specific subject knowledge which you may not be able to cover as part of a Level 3 BTEC qualification and we may therefore require additional Level 3 qualifications to ensure that you are suitably prepared for relevant courses. A small number of our courses do not accept BTEC qualifications for entry, either as a standalone qualification, or in combination with other qualifications at Level 3.

Information on our typical entry requirements and guidance for applying can be found at http://www.qmul.ac.uk/undergraduate/entry/btec/

If you are at all unsure about the acceptability of your BTEC qualification for entry, please contact the Admissions team for individual advice (admissions@qmul.ac.uk).

All applicants to Queen Mary must show they meet a minimum academic English language standard for admission and to be successful on the course. Please refer to the website below for details on our English Language requirements by course and acceptable alternative qualifications. You will also find important information regarding UKVI's English requirements if you are applying as an international student and will require a Student Visa to enter the UK. https://www.qmul.ac.uk/international-students/englishlanguagerequirements/undergraduate-and-postgraduate-programmes/
