Course summary

Law with criminology is a popular combination for anyone who wants to focus on law and gain valuable insights into the causes and consequences of crime. You'll study two criminology modules each year, with the rest of your course devoted to law. As an LLB degree, this course meets all of the requirements of the Solicitors Regulation Authority and the Bar Standards Board.You'll learn how the law is made and administered, and its relationship with the broader social, political, and cultural context in which it operates. For the criminology part of the course, you'll receive a solid introduction to the subject, including an understanding of the criminal justice system, which includes the police, courts, and prison systems. While much of the law course is compulsory, you'll be able to choose from a range of options modules in your third year to pursue areas that are of most interest to you.This law and criminology degree will give you a comprehensive understanding of the law and its place in the criminal justice system. In your first two years, you'll build firm foundations by studying the fundamentals of the law, taking modules that include the Legal System and Legal Methods, and Constitutional and Administrative Law.Teaching methods vary throughout the course - and you'll find this variety to be stimulating and challenging. You'll learn through lectures, seminars, tutorials, workshops, and individual supervision, supported by digital materials, notes, and handbooks. For some of the law elements, you'll have the chance to learn through moots and mock trials in our chambers.By studying law with criminology, you'll gain skills and knowledge that are in high demand from employers in a variety of fields. Many of our students go on to enjoy successful careers as solicitors after completing their legal studies through the Legal Practice Course (LPC) and obtaining a training contract with a law firm.Others become barristers, going on to take the Bar Professional Training Course (BPTC) and then obtaining pupillage in barristers' chambers. This can lead to a tenancy as a self-employed barrister, or you can practice as an employed barrister.
