LLB Law
About this course
Law is one of the most intellectually demanding and professionally respected disciplines available at undergraduate level. It is the study of the rules that govern social life, the principles through which rights and obligations are defined and enforced, and the institutions that interpret and apply those rules in the face of particular cases. A law degree develops the capacity for precise analytical reasoning, the ability to construct and evaluate complex arguments, and a sophisticated understanding of the relationship between legal rules and the society they regulate. At Keele, whose Law School has an internationally engaged, civic mission, this three-year full-time LLB offers research-led legal education alongside a range of practical opportunities, including the Community Legal Outreach scheme and mooting. You will advance your legal knowledge across the core areas of the curriculum while gaining practical experience that connects academic study to the realities of legal practice. The programme includes a sandwich year providing substantial professional experience, a year abroad for those wishing to study law in an international context, and work placement opportunities. The flexibility to tailor the degree towards your career aspirations, within a supportive and research-active school, ensures that your legal education is both rigorous and personally relevant. Keele's 600-acre campus provides a distinctive setting that fosters a close and engaged academic community. Graduates are well placed to pursue qualification as solicitors or barristers through the Legal Practice Course or Bar Practice Course. Many also move into careers in compliance, the civil service, journalism, business, and many other fields where legal training is valued. Postgraduate study in law or a related discipline is another option for those wishing to develop specialist expertise. The combination of academic depth, practical experience, and international engagement that Keele provides prepares you for a wide range of legal and non-legal careers.
