Course summary
In December 2024, the University of Bolton was granted permission by the Office for Students (OfS) to change its name to the University of Greater Manchester with immediate effect. While we work to update our systems, you may see both names used in the information we provide.
If you aspire to have a successful career in the legal profession, our LLB (Hons) Law with foundation year is an ideal choice. With highly-experienced tutors and dedicated courtroom facilities, we offer excellent training in all the core areas of law in a supportive and personalised learning environment.
Whether you're seeking to forge a career as a solicitor, barrister, costs lawyer, legal executive or conveyancer, the University of Greater Manchester's LLB (Hons) Law with foundation year is an excellent choice. It's also an ideal springboard to a career in civil service, business management, politics, HR or finance.
During the foundation year, our experienced team will introduce you to key areas of law and raise your awareness of the legal system and the law-making process in England and Wales. We'll also introduce you to general study skills such as finding, understanding and using appropriate academic resources, as well as skills specific to law such as mooting and how to interview a client.
After successfully completing the foundation year, you'll progress to the Qualifying Law Degree, following the same programme of study as students on our three-year LLB (Hons) Law course. We'll guide you in a detailed exploration of the sources, institutions and personnel involved in the law in England and Wales, and support you in developing the skills required to practice law.
We'll also challenge you to develop sought-after employability and transferable skills. Overall, our dedicated team will focus on helping you gain the skills employers value along with a deep and critical understanding of the law.
