    Course Summary

    The University of Bolton’s LLB program is a Qualifying Law Degree, and fully recognised by the Solicitors Regulation Authority and the Bar Standards Board (via the Joint Academic Stage Board and the Legal Training Review) to qualify successful graduates to seek training contracts. After completing your training contract, you’ll be fully qualified to practice law as a barrister or lawyer in the UK.

    You’ll learn the law of England and Wales in great depth, and have opportunities to study international, European or Scottish law as well. Or if you prefer, you can choose a specialty in nearly any aspect of the law, choosing classes which suit the career path you most hope to follow.

    You’ll learn in formal lectures and study sessions, to be sure, but you’ll also learn via activities such as moot debates and mock legal hearings, all in a purpose-built courtroom which simulats the real world experience perfectly.

    If you are changing direction after starting in another career area, you will possess valuable work experience and professional awareness. Many employers actively seek candidates with these benefits. Our network of contacts, a dedicated employability service and a reputation in the legal profession mean we also have an outstanding track-record of finding students legal employment.Many employers favour GDL students in an increasingly competitive legal job market. Through studying another degree subject, you will have gained many transferable skills. By taking the conversion route into law, you are showing motivation and determination by choosing law at a later stage than some others. This looks good to employers.
