Study Abroad

Our law study abroad degree is a four-year course which includes a year studying in Europe at one of our selected partner institutions.

As well as covering all the knowledge you'll need to qualify for a law degree, you'll also gain the kind of transferable skills most employers are looking for: versatility, familiarity with another culture, and proficiency in or working knowledge of a foreign language.

This degree is recognised by the Solicitors Regulation Authority and the Bar Standards Board. This means you'll be able to take further training to qualify to practise as a solicitor or barrister in England and Wales if you complete this degree successfully.
