Course summary
Overview
This course is suitable if you're aiming to become a qualified solicitor. It has been carefully designed to refresh your knowledge of core areas of functioning legal knowledge for SQE1 and to help prepare you for the skills assessments that are tested as part of SQE2.
As part of this you’ll undertake two core modules: ‘Criminal Law and Justice’ and ‘International Perspectives in Law’. You will also choose a further two options that match your particular career ambitions and intellectual interests.
Why us?
Taught by supportive and passionate staff with years of experience in practice
Course structure
A typical week for you will include weekly two-hour workshops across a variety of SQ1 and SQE 2 subjects. These are interactive and require a high level of preparation; in these workshops, you will develop your written and oral skills. The research project and dissertation are supervised by your tutor.
Compared to an undergraduate course, you will find that this master's requires a higher level of independent work. You will encounter a range of practical supervised and portfolio assessments across the course followed by an extended piece of researched coursework for your Practice Project.
