Are you a non-law graduate looking for a law conversion course to get up to speed with a range of legal concepts?
This course offers you the opportunity to gain a masters in law so you’re prepared for many different career options. Replacing the Graduate Diploma in Law (GDL)/Common Professional Examination (CPE), this degree focuses on the key areas of the law in England and Wales and provides a solid foundation for preparing for the first stage of the Solicitors Qualifying Exam (SQE), or training for the Bar. There are optional as well as core modules so you can tailor your studies to your career aspirations.
With an emphasis on small-group teaching, you’ll develop legal awareness and engage in informed discussion of the law. You’ll also have opportunities to take part in skills training – such as learning how to moot, interview clients and negotiate – and you’ll also experience some of the approaches used in vocational legal training such as the SQE.
When you graduate, you’ll be prepared for a range of career options including:
If you wish to graduate with the MA, you start work on your dissertation in the spring term and submit it in the summer.
You also have the option to finish your degree before the summer with a Diploma, which will give you the same scope to proceed to the next stage of legal qualification as a Graduate Diploma in Law (GDL).
