You’ll explore the nature of the legal profession, reviewing, analysing and evaluating specific cases, and study the operation and fundamental principles of the legal system of England and Wales. We’ll introduce you to the social, economic and political contexts of the law as well as the impact of underlying policy issues relating to the operation of the legal system.
You’ll develop your research and analytical skills appropriate to law and apply these skills to an in-depth study of a particular area of law through your dissertation or research project.
The LLM offers excellent preparation for graduates to continue to the Bar examinations or, as the programme is aligned with aspects of the Solicitors Qualifying Examination (SQE), to SQE-specific training or directly into employment in the legal sector.
The LLM offers an opportunity to gain an overview of the main areas of the SQE and the capacity to enter the workplace with confidence, relevant skills and legal knowledge. On completion of further relevant study and training, LLM graduates may pursue careers as solicitors, barristers, legal executives, paralegals, legal technologists and patent attorneys.
