Bachelor of Laws (Honours) - Law - Modern Languages (Placement Year)

The Bachelor of Laws (Honours) - Law with Modern Languages (Placement Year) pathway allows students to study a modern language (French, Italian, Spanish, German or Chinese) alongside their law modules. Lawyers with additional linguistic skills are in high demand in the UK and abroad, and this degree ensures them develop a working competency in another language. They can even choose to study the language as a complete beginner or as an intermediate learner.

The course is designed to foster students' intellectual independence. They will be supported to develop the confidence and skills needed to think critically, to ask and answer cogent questions about law and its role in society, and to effectively communicate their reasoned arguments, orally or in writing.

Students will acquire new knowledge and understanding of the principles and values of law and justice, and they will learn how law can be used to benefit individuals and societies, including the most marginalized in this community.
