What will you learn?

Course Details

Law is more than textbooks and theory — it’s communication, teamwork, research and confidence. This module helps you build the core skills you’ll need to thrive in your degree and beyond. You’ll practise public speaking, legal writing, referencing, problem-solving and more — all through real-world, group-based tasks. It also helps you reflect on your personal development and grow the kind of transferable and professional skills employers value. Whether it’s time management, resilience, or the ability to work with others, you’ll develop the confidence and clarity to start shaping your future career. It’s about preparing you to succeed not just as a law student, but as a professional — wherever your legal knowledge takes you.

This module explores all the foundational and fundamental aspects of the creation of a legal agreement that is a contract. It explores how a contract comes to light, how it can evolve based on the inclusion of certain terms and how the courts keep upholding underlying principles which underpin contract law, while balancing ideas of justice and public interest and policy. You will learn some of the key guiding principles in Contract law, key debates and discussions on the underlying idea of contract law, the evolution of its principles and rules, the role of contract and the limits to what it can achieve.

This module will enable you to acquire a thorough understanding of the principles of criminal liability, and how these principles are applied to specific offences. A range of offences will be considered, including homicide, offences against the person (such as assault and battery) and property offences (theft, burglary, robbery and fraud). You'll also acquire knowledge of the basis of a defendant’s liability and the skills to apply your knowledge in problem situations.

The English legal system is complex, rooted in history and constantly evolving. This module introduces you to the key elements of the English legal system and also looks at the procedure to enact legislation, an analysis of the anatomy of an Act of Parliament, delegated and secondary legislation and principles of statutory interpretation. A brief history of the evolution of common law is also considered, together with an analysis of the current English court system and the continuing importance of the doctrine of precedent. In this module you'll also learn the methods and techniques necessary for using legal resources, such as cases and legislation to construct legal arguments.

Laws don’t just reflect society — they shape it. In this module, you’ll explore how legal systems interact with race, gender, class and popular culture. From feminist and critical race theory to legal injustices shown in films and media, you’ll challenge the idea of law as neutral and ask who the system really serves. It’s an eye-opening introduction to law as a force for change — helping you build critical thinking skills that go far beyond the courtroom.

In this module you will explore how power is used (and sometimes misused) in the UK, and what happens when governments, courts and ordinary people clash. You’ll explore the legal workings of the UK, examine real-world controversies, and debate whether our system truly delivers justice. By the end, you’ll understand how the law affects your rights, your freedoms, and the society you live in — and how to use that knowledge to challenge injustice.

In this module you will learn about trusts and how they relate to broader themes about certainty and flexibility (through equity) in the application of the law. You will have the opportunity to learn about the life of the trust: how various trusts are created, how they operate, by whom, and what happens when trusts go wrong, how to gather evidence, assess the strength of the client’s case and decide whether to seek equitable remedies such as specific performance or consider alternative dispute resolution.

Following the exit of the United Kingdom from the European Union in 2000, the knowledge of EU law has never been more relevant. This module gives you a clear understanding of how the European Union works — its institutions, decision-making processes, and the legal principles behind the internal market and freedom of movement. You’ll explore the key legislative sources, landmark developments, and how EU law interacts with UK law today. By the end, you’ll have the insight to understand trade, travel, and cross-border legal issues in a post-Brexit world — knowledge that’s valuable for careers in law, business, and international relations. .

In this module, you’ll learn about the structure of land law in England and Wales — exploring the different types of estates, the rights and restrictions that can exist over someone else’s land, and the rules for creating, protecting, and transferring those rights. You’ll see how these principles play out in real scenarios, from lease agreements to shared ownership disputes, giving you the skills to navigate one of the most practical and impactful areas of law.

This module explores civil wrongs like negligence, defamation, and nuisance. You’ll analyse how the courts decide fault, how damages are calculated, and what makes a claim succeed. Using real-life cases, you’ll learn to apply legal tests and sharpen your ability to think clearly and argue with precision.

You will also choose 2 optional modules in this year. The current optional modules are:

In this module, you'll have the opportunity to gain an understanding of the specialist legal principles of commercial law, within relevant aspects of their social, institutional and cultural contexts. A wide range of commercial transactions are regularly conducted by businesses who use agents and this practice has given rise to disputes about the rights and obligations of the businesses, agents and customers. You'll also learn about the body of legal principles that has emerged to provide solutions to these types of disputes and the growing reliance on alternative methods such as mediation, arbitration and the use of the Financial Ombudsman Service.

Every limited company in England and Wales is built on a legal framework — and this module shows you exactly how it works. You’ll explore why concepts like limited liability and separate legal personality are so vital to business, and how they make enterprise possible. From shareholder rights to directors’ duties, you’ll examine the inner workings of companies and see how the law balances competing interests — whether between directors and shareholders, or between the company and its wider stakeholders. By understanding these relationships, you’ll be able to spot potential conflicts, assess the legal risks, and apply solutions that work in practice.

Evidence is at the heart of every legal case — and knowing what can (and can’t) be used in court can make or break at case. In this module, you’ll explore the rules of evidence in both civil and criminal cases in England and Wales, learning how they shape investigations, trials, and verdicts. You’ll work through real and hypothetical scenarios to see how the rules apply in practice — from challenging unreliable testimony to handling digital evidence. Along the way, you’ll build practical skills in analysis, critical thinking, and case preparation, gaining the insight to recognise not just what the law says, but why it works the way it does in different social, cultural, and institutional contexts.

Being able to argue your case clearly and confidently is a vital skill for any aspiring lawyer, whether you’re aiming to be a solicitor or a barrister. This module introduces you to ‘mooting’ — a practical exercise where you debate real legal problems in a simulated courtroom setting. You’ll develop your ability to analyse complex issues, structure arguments, and respond on your feet — skills that go beyond the classroom and will boost your confidence for professional legal practice.

This module introduces you to the role of legal professionals in England and Wales, with a strong focus on ethics, professionalism, and what’s expected of a solicitor. You’ll explore real and fictional case scenarios to understand what acting with honesty, integrity, and good judgement looks like in practice — and why it matters when advising clients. Alongside this, you’ll build essential skills you’ll use throughout your degree and into your legal career: research, drafting, advocacy, letter writing and more. You'll also begin to develop your commercial awareness — the ability to understand how law operates within business and society.

For more information on when and how we update our modules please see the ‘Legal Information’ section below.

The course offers an optional one-year (48 weeks) work placement after the second year, in the UK or abroad.

    You will choose 6 optional modules in this year. The current optional modules are:

    In this module you'll explore the framework of immigration control and the right of abode and consider the law relating to deportation and removal from the UK. You'll also study the law relating to claims for asylum, including separate elements of the definition of a refugee under international law. This module explores the approach to asylum claims including matters relating to credibility, sufficiency of protection and internal relocation and taking a human-rights oriented approach, looks at the context in which the law arises.

    This module is a clinical and a practical module with a client focused application of theory to practice. You'll have the opportunity to learn about the management of clients who present with a range of legal problems and the empowerment of those clients through the provision of legal advice. You’ll also have the opportunity to develop your professional skills including interviewing, researching, problem solving, reflective practice, drafting and advising. This module acts as an integrative medium to support clinical learning and show the application of theory to practice.

    In this module you'll explore law and ethics in the provision and regulation of healthcare and medicine. There is a particular recognition that medical law cannot be considered as a purely national subject, and this module will adopt a comparative approach, additionally focusing on Europe and the international agenda. You'll learn how the same regulatory and ethical questions have been resolved in different jurisdictions to help the critical comprehension of the issues raised by health and social care within England and Wales, but also in the development of a critical ability to discover how law may be reformed to be more socially just.

    International law, also known as the law of nations, is the body of principles which tell us about how international relations between different countries in the world are managed. It covers topics such as international legal personality, diplomacy, war, international human rights, international economic and trade relations and resolving disputes between states with a view to maintaining international peace and security. This module deals with some of the most controversial issues taking place in the world today and by identifying, examining and reflecting on the sources, subjects and key principles of public international law, you will understand how law works and influences individuals, people groups and states, at a global level.

    This module scrutinises the European Convention on Human Rights and the Human Rights 1998, which has incorporated the former into UK law, through a critical lens. In this context, you are introduced to the current debates within the framework of Europe’s regional human rights system, as well as constitutional questions stemming from the incorporation of an international human rights instrument into domestic statute law. In addition to familiarising themselves with the theory of human rights law, you will learn how to lodge an application with the European Court of Human Rights and formulate a human rights argument before UK courts.

    Employment law regulates the legal relationship between employer and employee, as well as the various other forms of work. In this module you'll have the opportunity to examine the formation of contracts of employment, its implied terms, and termination of the relationship between employer and worker at common law and under statute. Issues of anti-discrimination law in the field of employment will also be discussed.

    In this module you'll explore the relationships between members of a family and how the law is applicable to the breakdown of marriage/civil partnership or the relationship of a cohabitating couple. You'll evaluate the legal provisions relating to divorce and dissolution proceedings in respect of married couples and the legal principles that apply when dividing financial assets. The terms relating to married couples and their finance will be contrasted against the lack of formality surrounding cohabiting couples and their finances on relationship breakdown. The module also consider remedies available to couples in respect of domestic abuse.

    The current use of easily accessible copyright-protected works is putting pressure on a law that effectively originates from a 19th Century construction of law with a 20th Century application in a society for whom accessing the internet was inconceivable. In this module you will explore the nature of how copyright works, together with related rights including those assigned to databases and computer programs. This module will also provide a link between legal study and application of the law in a real-world 21st Century context, focusing on memes to explore the interrelationship between copyright and other forms of law beyond Intellectual Property (IP) rights.

    For more information on when and how we update our modules please see the ‘Legal Information’ section below.

    You will choose four 20 credit optional modules in this year, and:

    This module is an opportunity for you to conduct a research project in an area of law that relates to your personal and professional interests. In addition to guided workshops that will help develop independent research skills, you will work one-to-one with an experienced supervisor who will help you develop and implement your research ideas. This module will not only deepen your knowledge of a particular legal topic, but also help you build your practical research, writing and oral presentation skills.

    Legal information

    When you enrol as a student of the University, your study and time with us will be governed by our terms and conditions, Handbook of Regulations and associated policies. It is important that you familiarise yourself with these as you will be asked to agree to them when you join us as a student. You will find a guide to the key terms here, along with the Student Protection Plan.

    Although we always try and ensure we deliver our courses as described, sometimes we may have to make changes for the following reasons:

    Changes to a course you have applied for but are not yet enrolled on

    If we propose to make a major change to a course that you are holding an offer for, then we will tell you as soon as possible so that you can decide whether to withdraw your application prior to enrolment. We may occasionally have to withdraw a course you have applied for or combine your programme with another programme if we consider this reasonably necessary to ensure a good student experience, for example if there are not enough applicants. Where this is the case we will notify you as soon as reasonably possible and if you are unhappy with the change we will discuss with you other suitable courses we can transfer your application to. If you do not wish to transfer to another course with us, you may cancel your application and we will refund you any deposits or fees you have paid to us.

    Changes to your course after you enrol as a student

    Changes to option modules

    Where your course allows you to choose modules from a range of options, we will review these each year and change them to reflect the expertise of our staff, current trends in research and as a result of student feedback or demand for certain modules. We will always ensure that you have an equivalent range of options to that advertised for the course. We will let you know in good time the options available for you to choose for the following year.

    Major changes

    We will only make major changes to non-optional modules on a course if it is necessary for us to do so and provided such changes are reasonable. A major change is a change that substantially changes the outcomes, or a significant part of your course, such as the nature of the award or a substantial change to module content, teaching days (part time provision), type of delivery or assessment of the core curriculum. For example, it may be necessary to make a major change to reflect changes in the law or the requirements of the University’s regulators or a commissioning or accrediting body. We may also make changes to improve the course in response to student, examiners’ or other course evaluators’ feedback or to ensure you are being taught current best practice. Major changes may also be necessary because of circumstances outside our reasonable control, such as a key member of staff being unable to teach due to illness, where they have a particular specialism that can’t be adequately covered by other members of staff; or due to pandemics, other disasters (such as fire, flood or war) or changes made by the government.

    Major changes would usually be made with effect from the next academic year, but may happen sooner in an emergency. We will notify you as soon as possible should we need to make a major change and will consult with affected groups of students and any changes would only be made in accordance with our regulations. If you reasonably believe that the proposed change will cause you detriment or hardship we will, if appropriate, work with you to try to reduce the adverse effect on you or find an appropriate solution. Where an appropriate solution cannot be found and you let us know before the change takes effect you can cancel your registration and withdraw from the University without liability to the University for any additional tuition fees. We will provide reasonable support to assist you with transferring to another university if you wish to do so and you may be eligible for an exit award depending on how far through your course you are.

    In exceptional circumstances, we may, for reasons outside of our control, be forced to discontinue or suspend your course. Where this is the case, a formal exit strategy will be followed in accordance with the student protection plan.

    The Office for Students (OfS) is the principal regulator for the University.
