Law (LLB)

If you’re planning a career in the legal profession, our LLB degree provides a well-rounded qualification that can be your first step towards becoming a Scots lawyer or entering other prestigious sectors.

The University of Stirling LLB offers in-depth knowledge and understanding of legal principles, theories, institutions and rules – as well as the wider social and political context in which law operates. You’ll benefit from the knowledge of our expert teaching staff, whose own legal research is widely published and feeds back into the LLB programme. You can also rest assured that everything you’re learning is in line with the highest professional standards, as our LLB Hons is accredited by the Law Society of Scotland and recognised by the Faculty of Advocates.

There is also an opportunity to apply for a work placement in a legal organisation which will equip you with a comprehensive understanding of what professional life is like. Our LLB is a rigorous degree that develops important intellectual and personal skills. That's why our graduates are attractive to employers both in the legal profession and beyond.
