LLB Law with Business
About this course
Law with business is a degree that prepares you for the vast and increasingly important territory where legal practice and commercial life intersect. Almost every business decision has legal implications, from the formation and dissolution of companies to the negotiation of contracts, the management of intellectual property, the regulation of employment relationships, and compliance with competition and financial law. At Queen Mary University of London, the LLB Law with Business is a three-year full-time programme that explores how law operates in the world of business while giving you the freedom to focus on the areas that most interest you. As the current description notes, the programme allows you to study areas as diverse as contract law, intellectual property, and the management of human resources, alongside the foundational areas of English law that any qualifying law degree covers: tort, criminal law, constitutional and administrative law, and equity. The business dimension of the degree develops your understanding of how commercial organisations are structured, financed, and managed, and how legal frameworks shape the constraints and opportunities available to businesses in different sectors. Queen Mary's location in London gives you proximity to the commercial and financial heart of the UK legal market, and the university has strong connections to the legal and business communities that support students in making the transition from academic study to professional practice. Graduates of law with business programmes are well placed for a range of careers. The most direct paths lead to qualification as a solicitor, with law firms specialising in commercial, corporate, employment, intellectual property, or financial law being natural destinations. Others move into in-house legal roles within companies, where knowledge of both law and business practice is directly applicable. Non-legal business careers are also open to law graduates, and the analytical and communication skills developed in the degree are valued in finance, consultancy, management, and public administration. Some graduates go on to postgraduate legal study, including the Legal Practice Course or master's degrees in commercial law, while others pursue further education in business or management.
