Course summary
What this course is about
UCAS code: M100
Here's what University of Leeds says about its Law course.
This degree allows you to learn about how and why law is created and changed, and how it operates as a social institution. You’ll gain expertise in analysis, research, logical argument and more, as you develop an understanding of key topics and subject areas.
Through core and optional legal modules, you’ll examine the broader context of the law and its relationship with society. You can develop your interests in specialist legal areas, which might include company law, employment law, human rights law, environmental law, media law and family law, amongst others. You could also explore topics in criminal justice and criminology, such as policing or youth crime.
Throughout the course you’ll gain diverse skills that will be valuable to you as a global citizen, as well as in your professional career – whether you choose to enter the legal profession or not. You also have the opportunity to spend a year studying abroad (subject to academic performance and available places) or alternatively you could spend a year in industry.
The School has four world-leading research centres specialising in business law, criminal justice, legal education and social justice, with staff from those centres teaching across a range of undergraduate and postgraduate courses. You’ll have the opportunity to be taught by some of those staff and will also have the opportunity to apply to explore the practical application of law through our award-winning Community Engagement (pro bono) opportunities.
