Course summary
- This qualifying law degree – a pathway of LLB Law – enables you to study law as it relates to politics. You'll focus on modern threats to democracy and human rights, the relationship between domestic law, international law and politics, and the synergies required to effectively counter threats upon liberal democracy, the rule of law and human rights.- You'll develop an invaluable interdisciplinary understanding of how law operates in – and is shaped by – the UK political system and international law, studying law in its cultural, economic and socio-political context. You'll gain foundational knowledge of political theory and ideologies, UK and comparative governance, and world politics.- We’re one of the highest-rated courses in the country. We're number 1 in the UK for student satisfaction (Complete University Guide Law League Table 2024). In the National Student Survey 2022, our Department of Law was ranked number 1 in the UK for its intellectually stimulating curriculum and programme, and we were rated the best department in London for quality of teaching in law.- This programme is recognised by the Solicitors Regulation Authority and Bar Standards Board. It has been specifically designed to give you a solid foundation to tackle the new Solicitors’ Qualifying Examinations (SQE), and the equivalent training and qualification process for becoming a barrister.- Goldsmiths has a rich heritage of social awareness and engagement. You'll be part of an environment that champions human rights and social justice.- This degree is active. You won't just be sitting and reading, you'll learn problem-solving, debating and advocating through a range of experiential learning, extra-curricular and professional development activities, on campus and beyond.- You will hone the essential critical thinking and practical skills needed in representing clients and defending cases as a solicitor or barrister specialising in politics and human rights.
