Sunderland has one of the best Law Departments in the UK. We were named ‘Best for Teaching Excellence in Law’ by the Sunday Times University Guide 2012, and we were the only Law School in the UK to achieve 100% student satisfaction rates, according to The Guardian University Guide 2011.

Law is a very versatile degree that is highly valued in all professions, and it’s also the first step towards a career in the legal profession.

This LLB Law course takes you a step closer towards becoming a solicitor or barrister by satisfying the initial academic stage of training that you need. On completion of your course, the next step would be to go on to the Legal Practice Course (for solicitors) or the Bar Vocational Course (for barristers).

Our LLB Law course is unusual because we give you the option of a ‘dual qualification’. We offer a mix of modules that allow you to qualify as a graduate paralegal, so you can start working in law as soon as you graduate. The option of a ‘dual qualification’ is an important advantage that marks out Sunderland’s course from many others.

Our teaching team has wide professional and academic experience. We are fortunate to have excellent facilities at Sunderland, including a mock courtroom where you can practice your skills in advocacy. There is nothing like standing up in court and arguing legal principles to prepare you for a legal career – and at Sunderland we prepare you for it every step of the way.
