The University of Law is a world leader in legal and business education dating back to 1876. We offer a range of undergraduate and postgraduate programmes in law and business, as well as an extensive selection of post qualification law and professional development courses.

Whether your ambition is to work as a lawyer or in another industry, studying at The University of Law will ensure you’ll get the best possible start to your career.

We have students from over 120 different nationalities who contribute to a thriving international community throughout our campuses.

Why you should choose The University of Law

What really sets us apart from other universities is the guiding principle that the current and future lawyers we teach should only ever learn in a realistic, professional and contemporary context with plenty of practical, interactive engagement. That’s why we keep our contact hours high and our teaching groups small.

Innovation and Contemporary Teaching Practices

All of our courses – from our undergraduate law degrees to our diverse range of postgraduate courses and professional development programmes – are designed with a unique, varied and innovative learning approach that’s proven to deliver self-reliant lawyers who can compete in the fast-changing world of legal services. With a focus on developing skills in problem-solving, weighing up arguments, critical thinking, and commercial awareness, our courses are designed to prepare you for the real-life challenges of the working world.

Understanding of the Law

The University of Law is an internationally recognised expert in the field of law. Rather than focusing on academic research, our aim is to be thought leaders in the issues that matter to the legal profession and the next generation of practising lawyers. Our courses take an in-depth look into key areas of the law and provide a broader overview of the legal system to better contextualise what’s being learned.

The Most Experienced Tutors

Over 250 of our tutors are qualified lawyers, many still in practice, and all have extensive practical experience which they are able to pass on to our students. We facilitate this process with high levels of student-to-tutor contact time and small class sizes – one of the reasons that many law firms insist their trainees study with us.

International student support

Moving to a new country to study is a big decision, so we do all we can to help you settle in. Our Student Support Services team can advise you on everything from getting a UK bank account or a mobile phone, to finding accommodation.

There are also a range of clubs and societies at our University of Law campus which will help you make friends, settle in and feel at home.

The University of Law has a dedicated international visa office, which can provide professional support and advice on matters relating to international student visas.

Undergraduate Degrees

NEW FOR SEPTEMBER 2019: NOTTINGHAM CAMPUS

At The University of Law, we believe our undergraduate students should understand how the law, business, criminology and policing are applied in a real-world context, as well as being challenged academically.

We have always been confident in our teaching and the results we consistently achieve for our students. The University of Law was recently awarded a Gold ranking in the Government led Teaching Excellence Framework (TEF), a fantastic endorsement in our belief that we really do set our students up for success.

In addition, the University is ranked in the top 10 for student satisfaction in the 2018 National Student Survey and 92% of full-time UK LLB students graduating in 2017 secured employment or further study within six months of successfully completing their course.
