Location of Leeds Metropolitan University
The LLB (Hons) Law is a 'qualifying' law degree. This means that it has been recognised by professional legal bodies as fulfilling the academic stage of your legal training should you want to go on to qualify as a solicitor or barrister . For many this will be the first opportunity to study law, therefore, the course is designed to give students an experience of the substantive law areas whilst also learning the legal skills required for further study.
Once you have completed the course you are qualified to progress to the vocational stage of training for solicitors and barristers. In addition to the compulsory subjects which make up the qualifying law degree you may choose from a wide range of electives, or options, which provide you with an opportunity to study, in detail, specialist areas of law ranging from intellectual property to medical law.
Studying with us at our purpose-built Cloth Hall Court premises in the heart of the city's legal district will open up a range of career options. Many of our students go on to practice as solicitors and barristers. Others pursue careers in areas such as education, finance, industry, the police and the probation service.
