Teaching and learning
First year students studying the LLB in Law with History receive approximately 12 hours of contact time per week. For each module there is usually a two-hour lecture supplemented by a one-hour weekly or fortnightly small group tutorial.
For every hour spent in class, you’ll complete a further two to three hours of independent study. This time is spent reading, preparing for formal study sessions, working on projects and revising for exams.
Assessment
Assessment typically includes written exams, oral presentations, midterm essays and coursework.
In the final year of all our law programmes, students have the option to research and write a dissertation on a legal topic in place of a taught module.
