LLB Law with Spanish
2 Years, 2 Years (+ 1 term) | January, September.
Combining law with studies in another subject can be an excellent way to develop knowledge and skills that will not only make you a better lawyer but, should you not be interested in a legal career, can act as an excellent foundation for careers in other areas, such as banking, the civil service and management. It also allows you to introduce variety into your studies, as well as contextualising your legal knowledge within a business, political or cultural context. Other subjects can also reinforce your legal knowledge, for example business studies deepening understanding of company law and political studies improving understanding of constitutional and administrative law.
The Law with Spanish degree is completed in two four-term years (or in two years and three months for September entrants) and will help you to become a confident, competent lawyer, able to practise almost anywhere in the world. Law with Spanish is an English ‘qualifying law degree’.
Combining law with a foreign language increases employability in light of the increasingly international nature of legal practice. For example, Spanish is vital to business and commerce with, and in, South America and French is key for interaction not only with France (Paris is, with London, an important legal centre) but also, amongst other places, Switzerland, Monaco, Luxembourg, Belgium and many parts of Africa.
The language element of this combined degree is offered to beginners and to those already in possession of some knowledge of Spanish, allowing students to foster and/or maintain their capacities in a foreign language.
