Course summary

Law at Aberdeen gives you a unique experience of breadth, depth, choice and quality, with a broad range of subjects giving you accreditation with the Law Society of Scotland and Society of Advocates. You will also have options to combine your core legal studies with a modern European language, legal system, or other options to add further career benefits. Law at Aberdeen looks at the historical, social, political and economic forces that influence our legal systems and govern our societies. You will learn to think like a lawyer rather than just 'learn' law. A major factor in our quality is the calibre and enthusiasm of our staff, testing your mental agility with complex, realistic legal scenarios as you get to grips with criminal, public and private law, legal systems, contracts, human rights and explore family law, the law of property and legal aspects of the EU.You will have opportunities to hone your developing legal skills in student-led initiatives such as mock legal debating, our highly active Law Society, the students’ journal in which your work may be published and our community law clinic. You will graduate with great employment opportunities, both in legal professions and also in careers for which the intellectual qualities you have developed will make you highly sought-after by employers, including business, politics, media, finance and banking, government service and the police force.You will enjoy our special, warm welcome at the University of Aberdeen, benefit from excellent teaching, research with international impact and a truly global experience as part of our friendly and vibrant international community. You will love our beautiful campus, great facilities for learning, sports and leisure and the many opportunities to develop personally as well as professionally, including broader horizons and career advantages from study abroad.
