About LLB Law
Our LLB Law degree's curriculum incorporates the 'core' compulsory subjects required by the legal profession and aims to develop the 'benchmark' graduate skills identified by the Quality Assurance Agency.
There are varied optional units to choose from in your second and third years, reflecting the wide variety of work and different approaches to legal research (doctrinal, socio-legal/inter-disciplinary and theoretical) conducted in the Law School.
Teaching is conducted through lectures, small-group tutorials and seminars. In the final year, you will complete a 5,000 word research project on a legal topic of your choice.
Our specialist law library is located in the Wills Memorial Building, one of the most famous and distinctive features of the Bristol skyline.
All applicants must sit the National Admissions Test for Law (LNAT).
