Our approach is global in outlook, based on justice, and engaged with real-world problems.LLB Law with History will give you a thorough training in the complementary disciplines of law and history, by developing critical, reflective, creative and analytical skills. In addition to emphasising aspects common to both subjects, you explore the differences between them, and the approaches taken within law and historical thought.
