UCAS code: M2L3

Here's what University of East Anglia says about its Law with Criminology course.

Overview

Our Law with Criminology degree is aimed at students who want to study for a traditional English Law Degree alongside the fascinating and popular field of Criminology. This is the study of the nature, causes of and responses to crime and criminality , including the criminal justice system.

Situated within historic Earlham Hall, UEA Law School stands out as a premier institution, providing an immersive and personalised learning environment. You will benefit from dedicated lecturers who are experts in various legal and criminological domains and be part of a supportive community of scholars and students. With active student-led law and criminology societies, you will develop the skills and confidence necessary to excel within the legal profession and beyond.

The course combines the seven foundation subjects of a traditional law degree with several specific criminology modules. The semesterised approach to teaching, where each module is taught in one semester, also allows you to select from a wide range of optional modules later in the course (seven across your second and final year) so that you can tailor your degree around the subjects that interest you and stimulate your curiosity. Choices include a variety of law and criminology modules as well as modules from outside of the Law School including several Sociology modules.

During the Law with Criminology course, you will cultivate vital and applicable skills in research, writing, critical analysis, and constructing well-supported arguments. You will delve into and apply legal and criminological concepts, learn to evaluate crime from different angles and analyse a range of responses to contemporary events and global issues. Throughout your degree, you will benefit from guidance and constructive feedback to refine your abilities, unlock your full potential, and harness these transferable skills for success in both legal and non-legal professions.

You will find plenty of chances to boost your confidence and enhance your professional CV with the Law School's excellent employability programme and extracurricular activities like mooting (mock trials), negotiation, client interviewing, and mediation. Our numerous events with law firms, barrister chambers, criminal justice agencies, and alumni offer valuable networking opportunities and insights into post-graduation options. If you are keen on helping the local community, you can volunteer at the UEA Law Clinic, which has won the national Law Works Best Partnership in Pro Bono award four times. Here, you will provide free legal advice under the supervision of local solicitors to those who would not otherwise have access to it. This wealth of activities and experiences will prepare you for your career after graduation.

Overall id say that the inversity is okay, the course is good however the lectuerers arent the best and often times lectures feel quite pointless. Things cost a lot here too, with the laundrette and shop being very overpriced making it hard to budget money easily. However, the camous looks quite nic...

Uni life is very fun. You get to spend time with your friends and they're always there so you don't get bored. Norwich is a very average city but again you get used to it and it's also very historic

Accommodation is definitely good and like a hotel. The library is open 24/7 and the campus kitchen has very good food. My room is amazing I opted for en suite room which is better than others. We share a kitchen which is ok as it can get dirty quickly. But other than that all is good
