Law (Joint Honours) is not a qualifying law degree and therefore does not exempt you from the academic stage of legal training. After successful completion of stage one and dependant on your module choices in your first year, it may be possible to transfer onto the second year of the LLB Law which is a qualifying degree.

This intellectually stimulating and challenging programme allows you to combine your study of Law with another subject, broadening your perspectives and career prospects.
