Description:

Law affects every part of human life. From the air we breathe to our relationships with each other and the state. The increase in globalisation has led to the expansion of international law firms and a subsequent increase in job opportunities in private sector law firms, government, courts, Non-Governmental Organisation's and with international organisations including the European Union and International Court of Justice.

A law degree with a strong international focus prepares you for work within a law firm overseas or an organisation that operates overseas. The law industry is dynamic and competitive and changes in line with social needs. A law degree offers diverse career pathways and provides you with a skillset to succeed in almost any career.

Placements are offered to all students on the LLB after the second year of study. Your placement could be based in the UK or internationally. In addition to this you can study the final year 'Law in Action' module where you will gain experience in a local law firm or voluntary organisation for one day a week. Students have worked with Bristol Law Centre, Watkins Solicitors, Red Cross, Death Row, Citizens Advice and local schools. You will gain valuable real-world experience, develop key skills and increase your employability on graduation.
