About this course
As this is a qualifying law degree, you can expect to learn the fundamentals of the profession from day one.
The compulsory modules in your first two years include an introduction to legal skills and methods, and insights into the key specialist areas of the subject. These include contract, land, criminal, human rights, constitutional and administrative law.
In your final year, you’ll need to complete one compulsory module on equity and trusts, but will then be able to choose from a wide range of options. These include intellectual property law, Islamic law, commercial law, media law, client practice and civil and criminal litigation.
If you take these last two options, you can gain the Higher Diploma in Paralegal Practice in addition to your degree.
You’ll be encouraged to ‘learn by doing’ by volunteering for the University’s much-admired Legal Advice Centre in Stratford and through work placements with local law firms.
Students can also choose from a range of business-oriented module options on existing programmes offered by RDSBL in both their second and third years. This is the only qualifying law degree programme at UEL that allows students to choose business option modules at levels 5 and 6. It will also introduce law modules that are available to business students at levels 4, 5 and 6.
This course is designed to give you the opportunity to:
Enjoy a stimulating and engaging introduction to a broad range of multidisciplinary contemporary Law and Criminology learning and teaching;
Develop the necessary practical, intellectual and communication core skills necessary for the study of various disciplines in preparation for Level 4;
Build on the personal attributes necessary for independent learning and study to form the basis of future skill development in level 4;
