Course summary
Learn to use skills of analysis, reasoning and judgement to tackle topical questions with ethical, political and social dimensions.
Our distinctive LLB degree combines academic rigour with applied, practical and interdisciplinary perspectives, ensuring you develop an understanding of law in all its contexts. We are the only law school in the UK to use a problem-based learning approach as the basis for our undergraduate programmes. We believe this modern, practical method will help you to develop the skills and techniques you will need to stand out as a professional. Our highly approachable, expert tutors are committed to providing you with high-quality teaching, feedback and support. Staff and students work alongside each other in lectures, seminars and extracurricular activities including The Student Law Society, the Global Day of Action. The Baroness Hale Legal Clinic provides free legal advice to people and business, helping students gain practical experiences within our friendly and supportive surroundings. This degree meets requirements that can enable you to progress to the next stages of professional qualification as a barrister or solicitor in England and Wales. In addition, it may also contribute to the entry requirements of qualification in other jurisdictions.

Contextual admissions
Universities and colleges consider more than grades when assessing applications and may make offers based on a range of criteria. Learn more about contextual offers.
Contextual offers take social and economic factors that may have prevented you from reaching your true academic potential into account.
We know that some students face significant barriers during their journey to university. Contextual offers promote fairness and diversity in our community of talented students.
With a contextual offer, UK students can receive a reduced offer of up to two grades below our typical entry requirements.
