International Law LLB(Hons) with professional experience single honours

The Department of Law has strong links with external organisations, who can help make you more employable: for instance, we have established a partnership with the Home Office's Legal Department to enable law students to gain professional experience through a year-long paid work placement. The Department of Law has also a thriving relationship with the National Centre for Domestic Violence (NCDV) which has resulted in many law students working as domestic violence case workers.
You can tailor your degree to suit your interests and career goals with a variety of optional modules.
Our Community Legal Advice Centre provides opportunities for you to gain real-life skills, enhance your CV and gain experience with community legal cases. The Centre was set up to provide free legal advice to individuals, charities, businesses and community groups in the Kingston area. Recently our students have been advising on issues such as landlord and tenant disputes, employment disputes, family matters and financial mis-selling.
