LLB Law with International Relations at Swansea University brings together the study of law with an in-depth exploration of international politics, diplomacy, and global governance.
Designed to prepare you for a wide range of careers, the programme is grounded in academic excellence and informed by leading research. It blends theory and practice, enabling you to understand how legal systems operate within wider social, political, and economic contexts, while critically examining the role of law in shaping international relations and transnational governance.
From the outset, you will develop a comprehensive understanding of the foundations of legal knowledge, including Contract Law, Tort Law, Criminal Law, Public Law, Land Law, Equity and Trusts, and EU Law. These core subjects satisfy the academic stage of training required by the Bar Standards Board, and support those wishing to pursue the Solicitors Qualifying Examination (SQE).
Alongside these core areas, you will study international relations modules that explore topics such as International Relations in a Changing World, and Global Justice and Human Rights in the Age of Globalisation. This will help you develop a critical understanding of how law interacts with international politics and global decision-making.
As you progress, you can tailor your degree through a wide range of optional modules in both law and international relations. Law options include Human Rights, Medical Law, Cybercrime, Environmental Law, Family Law, and World Trade, while international relations options may cover International Security, the Global South Covert Wars or America and the Bomb. This flexibility allows you to pursue your interests and develop specialist expertise across two complementary disciplines.
