Course summary

Studying our Law LLB(Hons) course can start you off on your career journey in the field of Law, as well as provide plenty of transferrable skills that will make you stand out to potential employers, such as critical thinking, researching and interviewing.

Why Study Law LLB(Hons) at University of Huddersfield?
You’ll be taught my both practitioners and legal academics who bring their industry and research expertise into classroom teaching.

Our flexible course structures mean that you can wait until the end of Year 2 to decide whether you want to study on an academic course, i.e., LLB (Hons) Law or one of our practice-focused courses, i.e., Law and Practice or Master’s in Law and Practice.

You’ll participate in national and international Moot competitions, professional mentoring scheme, the Law School challenge and law Careers Fair. In doing so, you’ll develop legal and employability skills, and network for future careers.

In addition to specialised legal databases (i.e. Westlaw, Lexis Library) and journals (via Heinonline, Jstor), you’ll have access to over 200 law eBooks (textbooks) via Law Trove. These are all included in your course fees.

On campus, you’ll have access to our purpose-built mock courtroom (which gives you the chance to benefit from real-life scenarios, to hone your skills), and Legal Advice Centre to apply law in practice, developing advocacy, drafting, interviewing, and researching skills.

The course will prepare you not just for a career in the legal field but also in other professions, such as those in business, finance, education, public policy, and public service.

After the second year, you’ll put your knowledge and skills to the test in an optional 48-week work placement in your area of interest, in the UK or abroad.

This course will prepare you for a variety of potentially exciting careers in a range of fields in the industry. Becoming a solicitor or a barrister is the most common path, but you could also work as a paralegal, legal assistant, or legal consultant. You can also advance to a postgraduate course to deepen your legal knowledge.
