BA Law and Business

Course Description

The combination of both Law and Business allows for a greater depth of knowledge and the workings of private sector organisations. In studying Business, you will have exercised research and problem-solving skills and demonstrated your ability to analyse and interpret data. The course is also designed to equip you to understand and adapt to global business. Recent statistics from HESA (Higher Education Statistics Agency) show that law and business graduates succeed in the areas of criminology, financial management, business, human resources, international relations, journalism and education. You will also be suited to jobs including banker, insurance underwriter, management consultants and risk manager. Throughout your training you will develop a wealth of core legal skills and other skills that can be easily transferred into almost any graduate or professional employment situation.

Career outcomes

The course team has developed very close links with a number of professional organisations in both the business sector and legal services fields. This has allowed for close consultation on the development of course content and the availability of unique work experience opportunities. The course works closely with other private sector organisations, all of which have legal departments and the combination of both legal and public sector understanding and knowledge would be seen as a benefit to such a position. The team has developed close relationships with local Law firms and developing work experience opportunities which would benefit the students if they chose to extend into further legal study.
