LLB Law (part-time)
About this course
Law is one of the most intellectually rigorous and practically consequential academic disciplines, providing the framework within which societies regulate behaviour, resolve disputes, protect rights and enforce obligations. An LLB is both a serious academic education in legal thought, doctrine and reasoning and a foundation for one of the most demanding of all professional careers. For those who need to balance study with work, family or other commitments, a part-time route to a qualifying law degree is genuinely valuable. At the University of Buckingham, this part-time LLB is designed specifically for flexible study, with weekly evening sessions that provide stimulating and illuminating engagement with tutors alongside written materials and online resources that are included as part of the programme. The format allows you to consolidate your understanding of the law, develop your study skills and grow your legal confidence around a full-time working life or other commitments. You will cover the core areas of English law, including contract, tort, constitutional law, criminal law and equity, developing the doctrinal knowledge and the analytical and problem-solving skills that legal education and legal careers require. Graduates of part-time law programmes proceed towards legal qualification through the same professional routes as full-time graduates, including the Solicitors Qualifying Examination for those wishing to qualify as solicitors. The flexibility of the part-time route is particularly valuable for students who are already working in legal, business or public sector roles and who want to develop their legal knowledge while continuing their careers. Beyond the legal profession, law graduates are valued across finance, the civil service, human resources, compliance, journalism and the charitable sector, where the analytical, research and communication skills a law degree builds are directly applicable.
