The School of Law is a thriving, innovative, well regarded provider of legal education which produces confident and employable graduates. The undergraduate law provision has grown in terms of breadth of curriculum provision and student demand steadily and substantially from the launch of the first qualifying law degrees in 2002. The School has recently opened a mock courtroom with facilities comparable to a real court of law which allows students to simulate full scale trials.

All LLB (Hons) degrees are accredited by the Solicitors Regulation Authority and Bar Standards Board and students can choose between single honours law or law combined with business, criminology, European studies or international relations.

Law students will have the opportunity to take part in mooting and negotiation (key practical skills) in internal and external competitions and as part of the assessment in some units. Based in the Anglesea Building, the School of Law has state-of-the-art teaching facilities and staff with a wide variety of practical and academic experience of law.
