LLB Law
About this course
Law is the framework within which societies organise relations between individuals, organisations and the state, defining rights, obligations and the remedies available when they are breached. An LLB degree combines substantive knowledge of key legal areas with the analytical and communication skills that distinguish rigorous legal thinking: the ability to read statutes and cases precisely, to construct arguments, to identify the relevant principles in a set of facts and to apply them with precision and care. At the University of Bradford this programme includes a foundation year, providing a structured pathway for students who want to develop the academic skills and foundational knowledge needed before engaging with degree-level legal study. The main programme runs full time over three years once the foundation year is complete. The degree offers opportunities to develop expertise in areas such as criminal law and provides access to practical court-based experiences that develop professional skills and a real understanding of how the legal system works in practice. The curriculum is designed both to develop your legal knowledge and to help you stand out to employers and professional training providers in a competitive field. You will study the core areas of English law, including contract, tort, criminal law, public law, equity and trusts, and land law, alongside more specialist options. You will develop the ability to research legal questions independently, to write clearly under the discipline of legal reasoning, and to present arguments orally. Graduates pursue professional legal qualifications as solicitors through the Solicitors Qualifying Examination or as barristers through the Bar Training Course, and work in private practice, public sector legal services and in-house departments. Others enter careers in finance, compliance, human resources, policy and commercial roles where legal literacy is valued. Postgraduate study in law or a related discipline is also an established route.
