Course summary

What this course is about

UCAS code: M114

Here's what Edinburgh Napier University says about its Law course.

Fully accredited by the Law Society of Scotland, our friendly and open student experience is what makes us stand out from other universities.

The LLB will enable you to apply for the Diploma in Legal Practice (also known as PEAT 1), the next step on the way to becoming a qualified solicitor or advocate in Scotland.

The LLB is an excellent qualification if you wish to work in other professions, particularly those related to business and finance.

In fourth year there is a range of optional law subjects, such as Sports Law, enabling you to reflect on the function of law in a wider economic, political, international and social context.

We have a 100% satisfaction rate for our LLB (Hons) Law course (National Student Survey, 2023).

We are a top 10 UK modern university for Law (The Guardian Good University Guide 2022, 2023, 2024).

I've never had an issue so far with the student union but I have heard good things

Students are all great and easy to talk to. I like the various groups they offer

University life

1st year student

1 year ago

My studies are covered which is great, I wouldn't be here without it. Of course it's hard to travel in each day but it's cheaper than living closer to uni.

Finance

Feedback on work is always respectful to me even when saying what I haven't done right or need to work on. They always provide helpful insights such as going over assignments briefs with us

Support

I like the different levels of the libraries/quiet spaces. Toilets are always extremely clean. I don't live in uni accommodation so have nothing to say on that

The course works well. The modules are very helpful at getting an overview and the timing of lectures each week don't feel like they're rushing through or going to slow. Tutorials are helpful when people decide to talk
