Course summary

Add an international dimension on your legal studies with this challenging and interesting combination. As a qualifying law degree, you will still be exempt from the academic stage of qualifying as a barrister.The law doesn't operate in isolation, and in this course you'll gain valuable insights into the global political context as well as the social and cultural aspects of how the legal system functions.A large part of the course focuses on law so you will learn how law is made and administered, gain an understanding of the English legal system and study key aspects of civil and criminal law.For the international relations part of the course, you will be given an introduction to the subject in your first year. You'll then take one international relations module in each of your second and third years. As this is a joint degree, and you have core courses there will not be any options.Teaching methods vary throughout the course but include lectures, seminars, tutorials, workshops and individual supervision. These are supported by digital materials and module guides.This course will give you a comprehensive understanding of the law and its place in society. In the first two years, you will study the fundamentals of the law, taking modules such as the English Legal System, Public Law, Criminal Law, Tort Law and Land Law.For International Relations, you'll begin with Mental Wealth: Knowledge, Skills, Practice and the Self. In your second year, you will be studying Global Governance and Great Power Politics. For the final year, you'll take Gender, Power and Politics and African Politics and Development.Graduates in law with international relations gain skills and knowledge that are high demand from employers across a range of different 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.Some 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 practise as an employed barrister.
