LLB Law
About this course
Law is the body of rules, principles, and institutions through which societies regulate behaviour, resolve disputes, and pursue justice. It touches almost every aspect of individual and collective life, from contracts and property to criminal accountability, human rights, and the governance of states. Studying law means engaging not just with the technical content of legal rules but with the social, moral, and political purposes those rules serve, and with the ways in which law interacts with power, inequality, and cultural change. At the University of Hull, this three-year, full-time qualifying law degree takes that broad perspective seriously. You will study the fundamental areas of law, including contract, tort, criminal law, public law, and equity, while also engaging with the social, moral, and political roles that law plays in areas such as environmental protection, human rights, and the regulation of emerging technologies including artificial intelligence. Hull's law school has a strong tradition of socially engaged legal education, and the programme encourages you to see legal doctrine not as an end in itself but as a tool for addressing real-world problems. The typical entry tariff of 104 points reflects a commitment to making legal education accessible to students with strong potential. A law degree from an English university is a qualifying degree for those who wish to go on to professional training as a solicitor or barrister, and many Hull law graduates follow that route. Others enter careers in the civil service, local government, business, compliance, insurance, journalism, the charity sector, and public affairs, all of which value the analytical, research, and communication skills that a law degree develops. For those who wish to specialise further, postgraduate study in areas such as commercial law, human rights, environmental law, or criminology is a natural continuation.
