Law LLB(Hons) with integrated foundation year

How this course is delivered

COVID-19 has changed everything. We’ve made some changes to the way our courses are taught to keep everyone safe and that will help you stay connected and involved in university life.

From the start of term in September, you’ll learn through a blend of on-campus and digitally enabled remote learning that will provide lots of opportunities to interact and engage. Together with carefully managed access to libraries, labs, workshops and studios this means your studies are as collaborative, practical and flexible as possible.

Course structure

You'll complete four modules in the foundation year. They will allow you to explore contemporary debates in business and law, developing a strong understanding of the principles. You'll develop the transferable skills that are essential for study at degree level, and explore the relationship between theory and practice and how this relates to debates and issues in business.

Learning will be through a mixture of lectures, small group teaching in workshops and seminars, private study and course work. You'll be supported throughout by your personal tutor.

Modules

• Applied Numeracy and Data Handling Skills
• Introduction to Wellbeing and Study Success
• Academic Knowledge for Law and Business
• Developing Practical Professional Knowledge

Making sure that what you learn with us is relevant, up to date and what employers are looking for is our priority, so courses are reviewed and enhanced on an ongoing basis. If you apply to us, you’ll be told about any new developments through Student View.

Progress to a degree

Successful completion of the foundation year means that you'll be able to progress to one of our accredited law honours degrees.

• Law LLB(Hons)
• Law with Business LLB(Hons)
• Law with Criminology LLB(Hons)

• Students who choose to take an optional placement will have travel and living expenses. The cost of this depends on where and how long your placement is.

The fees listed here are for full-time courses beginning in the academic year 2020–21.

Further tuition fees are payable for each subsequent year of study and are subject to an annual increase of no more than 5% or RPI (whichever is the greater). The annual increase for UK/EU students, who are subject to regulated fees, will increase no more than the statutory maximum fee.
