This three-year programme combines theory and research with practical application and skills-based training. Students may also have the opportunity, after year two, to extend their studies by a year and spend part of their degree studying abroad in the USA, Australia, Hong Kong or Singapore. No previous knowledge of law is assumed or required.

In each year of your degree you will take a number of individual modules, normally valued at 15 or 30 credits, adding up to a total of 120 credits for the year. Modules are assessed in the academic year in which they are taken. The balance of compulsory and optional modules varies from programme to programme and year to year. A 30-credit module is considered equivalent to 15 credits in the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS).

We start the first two weeks of the first academic year with a two-week induction programme: Laws' Connections: Legal Doctrine and Contemporary Challenges.  Laws' Connections is designed to be an inspiring introduction to the study of law here at UCL Laws, and to the role of law in addressing social challenges.

You will then study compulsory modules in Public Law, Contract Law, Property I and Criminal Law during Year One of the programme. Progression to the second year of study is contingent upon passing all first-year examinations.

In Year Two you will take four more compulsory modules: Tort, Property II, EU and Human Rights Law, and Jurisprudence & Legal Theory. As in the first year, progression to the Final Year is contingent upon passing all second-year examinations.

In the Final Year, you will choose 120 credits from a list of optional modules. One of them could be a research essay on a legal subject of your choice, subject to approval by the department. Subject to availability and approval, it may also be possible to take up to 30 credits from modules outside of Laws in place of a Laws optional module.

Upon successful completion of 360 credits, you will be awarded a LLB (Hons) in Law.
