LLB (Hons) Law with Foundation Year – Online

Course Overview

This 4-year online law degree, known as an LLB or Bachelor of Laws, is equivalent to a BA or BSc. This course is for students interested in Law as a subject, whether they wish to become a solicitor, barrister, or in-house lawyer; a Law degree is widely respected. As a qualifying law degree (QLD), this course is essential if you are considering a career as a solicitor or a barrister, as it allows you to continue to move onto the next stage of training to enter the legal profession: The BPTC for barristers or the LPC/SQE for solicitors.  

The online LLB (Hons) Law with Foundation Year is ideal if you prefer to learn digitally from the comfort of your home. Although classes are run via your laptop, you can expect an industry-leading faculty of expert tutors and academics from various disciplines across industry and academia to teach you.
