Study both English and American law and spend a year abroad at a US Law School. This four-year degree incorporates all the law modules you need for a qualifying UK law degree, but also brings with it the broader educational and cultural experience of studying in America. Although the US legal system originates from the English common law, it has developed in markedly different ways. By studying it, you will gain a comparative element to your legal education, as well as develop insight into the politics, history and culture of the United States.
At UEA, alongside your English law modules, you will study the US legal system and US Constitutional Law. You will then spend your third year at one of our partner law schools in the US. We currently have links with law schools in Alabama, Florida and Texas. You will take classes with American students, helping you to cultivate a deeper understanding of your chosen areas of US law. At the end of your four-year degree, you will have an English qualifying law degree, as well as a strong understanding of the US and its legal system. You will also have developed a wide range of transferable skills to help you excel in your choice of profession. |
