LLB Law with International Relations
About this course
Law with International Relations is a combination that addresses both the rules governing human conduct and the forces that shape how states and organisations interact beyond national borders. Law equips you to understand how legal systems work, how rights and obligations are defined, and how disputes are resolved. International relations draws on political theory, history, and social science to examine the structures of global governance, the nature of power, and the institutions through which nations cooperate or compete. Together, the two disciplines produce graduates who can think rigorously about both the legal and political dimensions of global affairs. At Middlesex University in London, this part-time programme lets you pursue your degree alongside other commitments, making it accessible to students who are already working or have responsibilities that prevent full-time study. You will develop a thorough grounding in the core principles of English law, including contract, tort, constitutional and administrative law, and criminal law, alongside the academic and practical training that supports qualification as a solicitor or barrister in England and Wales. The international relations component builds your understanding of the political, social, and economic forces shaping global affairs, from multilateral organisations and human rights frameworks to security, development, and the changing balance of world power. London's position as a global legal and political centre provides a rich environment in which to study both subjects. Graduates of Law with International Relations are well placed for careers in legal practice, particularly in areas with an international dimension such as commercial law, public international law, human rights, and trade. Beyond legal practice, the degree opens paths in diplomacy, public policy, international organisations, journalism, and the civil service. Many graduates also continue to postgraduate study in law, international relations, or related fields, building specialist expertise for research or senior professional roles.
