The LLB Law course will gain a deep understanding of the main areas of legal knowledge, including law as it regulates the functions of the state (EU law, public law and criminal law), law as it regulates relations between private individuals (contract law and tort law), and law as it regulates the ownership and control of land and other property (land law, and equity and trusts). Our School of Law is one of the most vibrant and innovative law schools in the country, with world class scholars in the field of international economic law, intellectual property law, Comparative Law, International and European Law, Environmental Law, Legal Philosophy and Legal Theory and Socio-Legal Studies. We have created a unique platform so that you will benefit from our dynamic and stimulating intellectual environment. You will learn how to debate the law, to analyse its application to given situations and to apply your legal understanding in a national or international context, developing your professional skills through a series of extracurricular activities focusing on client interviewing, negotiation and mooting. Each year, many former students take up permanent employment with prestigious employers who have included Electricité de France, Clifford Chance, Eversheds and other firms of solicitors, sets of barristers’ chambers and legal departments of large companies. We offer a varied programme of careers sessions, which will provide advice and guidance on what you should do to develop a suitable career path. In combination with our student Law Society, we run a variety of events, competitions and activities, such as mooting and client interviewing, that are not only enjoyable and rewarding but will also enhance your employability and introduce you to local and regional solicitors, barristers and other legal professionals. The School of Law also has close links with the University of Law in Guildford and cooperates with the university in a number of career-development activities. Recent law graduates have secured roles such as: Compliance Associate, Herbert Smith Freehills LLP; HR Case Manager, Ministry of Justice; Graduate Scheme Trainee (Banking), Lloyds Bank; Paralegal, Shoosmiths; Tax Analyst, Deloitte; Corporate Paralegal, Meade King LLP and Claims Handler, Arthur J Gallagher.
