Course summary

Law is central to our society, governing our everyday lives. Its also one of the most rewarding, challenging and respected areas of study you can pursue.

By studying law, you will develop skills in abstract thinking, critical analysis and practical problem-solving. By progressing these essential skills, there will be a broad range of exciting career possibilities available to you once you graduate.

This foundation year helps you prepare for the LLB if you dont have traditional academic qualifications. During the year, youll get an introduction to law and how it applies across society. Youll also develop the academic and study skills you need to complete a university degree.

Enter the legal profession

This is the first step on your journey to becoming a legal professional. It will give you a solid grounding in law that youll build on during the three or four years of your LLB.

If you want to train as a barrister or solicitor, youll need to complete additional vocational qualifications after you graduate with your full degree.

Learn from professionals

Our staff are practising legal professionals and experienced legal scholars. Theyll share their experience with you on this course and your full LLB.

During your full degree, youll be able to take advantage of our extensive industry connections. You'll have the option to choose a four year route to undertake a work placement and gain professional experience.

Career prospects

The foundation year is the beginning of your legal education. Successfully completing this course will allow you to progress onto our LLB (Hons) degree.

A law degree will pave the way for a career in this highly regarded profession. But the skills and knowledge you develop are also attractive to employers in other sectors.

You could join an in-house legal team, work for the police, or become a journalist. If law is your passion, you can go on to qualify as a solicitor or barrister.

Some of our graduates have gone on to work for charities, the civil service or in the corporate sector. Your intellectual ability and communication skills will serve you well, whatever path you follow.

You might decide to study at postgraduate level to achieve your LLM, or explore the legal landscape through research.

Take the opportunity to go on a work placement or work with our pro bono partners to gain legal experience and learn more about professional life before you graduate. Youll gain confidence and boost your CV.
