Course summary


Law with Criminology provides you with a strong understanding of the legal system, whilst offering valuable insight into the causes and consequences of crime.

Our Law with Criminology course adopts a joint approach to examining issues within law and the criminal justice, where you learn to investigate real-world scenarios through a legal and social lens. You’ll learn the core principles of Law, whilst investigating the causes of crime and its impact on individuals, families and society as a whole in your Criminology modules.As you progress through the course, you’ll be able to specialise your studies around your interests. There are lots of optional modules to choose from in your second and third years, with topics including Victimology, Mental Health and Substance Abuse in Criminal Justice and Medical Law and Ethics.At Worcester, assessment is not all about written assignments and exams. You’ll also be assessed on your legal knowledge through oral presentations, research projects and mock trials in our replica courtroom.You’ll join a community of Law students, all based together in the centre of Worcester, which is a short walk away from the city’s courts and several local law firms. You’ll learn from our expert criminologists and a network of high-profile legal professionals, including the Resident Judge of Hereford and Worcester.If you decide to pursue a career as a solicitor, the LLB will provide you with a solid grounding for your future preparation for Stage 1 of the Solicitors Qualification Examination (which is required by the Solicitors Regulation Authority). Should you choose to become a barrister, the LLB will also provide a solid foundation for your potential future studies on the Bar Professional Training Course (as required by the Bar Standards Board).By the time you graduate, you will have plenty of experience with courtroom etiquette, legal procedure and social science behind law.


Placements

Pro bono activity is built into the course, giving you the chance to work alongside practising solicitors and develop your legal skills while making a genuinely positive contribution to society.You can also choose to complete an optional work-based placement in your third year at an approved legal organisation such as a solicitor’s firm, a barrister’s chambers, or within our Legal Advice Clinic.
