The School of Law provides an intellectually stimulating, friendly and supportive environment in which to hone your legal skills. You will develop a thorough appreciation of the legal system and the role of law in society. You will be directly supported by internationally excellent academics and by specialist legal practitioners. In addition to the wide range of optional modules on our LLB Law degree there are also specialist degree pathways available to you in your second and third years. This will lead to a qualification in either LLB Criminal Justice or LLB Commercial Law, all of which aim to enhance your career prospects.

Some students see a law degree as a route to professional practice while others choose not to practise law - a law degree is a suitable education for a wide variety of careers because of its intellectually demanding nature. As an Oxford Brookes law graduate you will be confident in communicating legal knowledge and you will have the techniques of research, analysis and articulation that are transferable to postgraduate study and to a wide range of careers. Whether you choose a career in publishing, government, the armed forces or management positions in industry, your law degree will open many doors. We pride ourselves on maintaining strong links with major law firms, and we have an excellent reputation for creating high calibre and sought-after trainees.
