LLB for Graduates

Please note: You will take 120 credits of modules in each year of study. The modules listed on the website for this programme are regularly reviewed to ensure they are up-to-date and informed by the latest research and teaching methods. Unless indicated otherwise, the modules listed for this programme are for students starting in 2020. On rare occasions, we may need to make unexpected changes to compulsory modules; in this event we will contact offer holders as soon as possible to inform or consult them as appropriate.

We assume you have no prior knowledge of the law, so one of the first modules you take will be Legal Skills and Methods, designed to give you the skills needed to succeed on a law degree. The full list of modules scheduled for first year are:

• Legal Skills and Methods for Graduates
• Criminal Law for Graduates
• Public Law for Graduates
• Law of Contract for Graduates
• Law of Torts for Graduates
• Decolonising Legal Concepts for Graduates
