Course summary
What this course is about
UCAS code: MQ15
Here's what University of Edinburgh says about its Law and Celtic course.
Our joint programmes allow you to study law alongside another academic discipline. Over the four years of study in this programme, you will take a range of courses from both the Law School and the School of Literatures, Languages and Cultures.
The joint LLB Law and Celtic programme aims to promote advanced knowledge and understanding of the theory, concepts and rules of law. Alongside this, you can develop your interests in particular areas, periods and disciplines of Celtic studies.
As well as the history, languages, literatures and cultures of the Celtic world from the Middle Ages to the present, our expertise extends to:
-
theoretical and practical issues of current sociolinguistics
-
language policy
-
language revitalisation
If you choose to study Scottish Gaelic, it does not matter if you are a complete beginner; we stream our Year 1 classes to suit all levels of prior knowledge or none.
If you continue your language study into your honours years, you will develop the professional competence to speak and write confidently in Scottish Gaelic about a variety of topics including current affairs and cultural issues.

I love our student union, I think it is a great space and a good bar, however the student union club could do with a bit of work, making it more accessible and having a range of music. The drinks are a good price, and food deals are welcomed!

University of Edinburgh open days
Are you thinking of applying to this university?
Before you do, it's a good idea to go to an open day. You can have a good look around campus, getting a better idea of what it's like to study there. You'll meet current students and staff and get the chance to ask them questions.
Universities will list upcoming open days on their websites. Most will also have virtual open days; these are a great alternative if you really can't get there in person. For tips on preparing for open days, check the advice section here on The Uni Guide.
