Program Overview
Introduction:
This course has a flexible timetable designed to fit around your existing commitments.
If you require a legal qualification to get to where you want to be but cannot afford to dramatically change your lifestyle to get it, look no further. This degree course has been designed for students who want to combine their legal education with ongoing employment or personal commitments.
You will attend the same seminars as LLB (Hons) Law (full-time) students and gain the same skills, but the timetabling of your classes and the overall duration of the programme are flexible to meet your needs. With flexible study you have the choice of studying for four, five or six years. Your seminars may, for example, be scheduled on just one day or two afternoons per week. And you will have the opportunity in your first year to transfer onto full-time study if your availability changes.
All of our degrees are compliant with the requirements of the SRA and the BSB for the purposes of professional qualification as a solicitor or barrister in England and Wales.
You can study around your job or other commitments.
Why choose this course?
All of our courses are designed to provide our students with a number of work-based learning opportunities.
Employer Challenge
The Employer Challenge is an initiative designed to offer our students a 'work-like experience' during their Law degree. During your second year module Applied Legal Knowledge - Civil Practice, you will work on a legal or business related challenge set for you by a professional employer. It is a chance for you to make a real difference to their business by working on a current or hypothetical issue facing them. After meeting with your employer and receiving your challenge, you will work to research the issue and develop your recommended solution. You, or your team, will get to present your results to your challenger a few weeks later and see what they think. There will be team and individual challenges, but you are assessed individually based on a reflective report, written by you after feedback from your challenger.
