The Law (Extended), LLB Hons at the University of Greenwich is designed for students who want to build a robust foundation in legal theory and practice, even if they do not meet the standard entry requirements for a traditional three-year degree. By beginning with a compulsory foundation year, you will develop the essential academic writing, communication, and study skills required to succeed in higher education. You will explore core legal principles, including public law, contract law, and the English legal system, gaining the critical analytical abilities necessary to navigate complex regulatory environments and professional ethical standards throughout your studies.
Studied full-time on campus over four years, this programme integrates practical experience with rigorous academic training. You will engage in hands-on learning through opportunities like the Legal Advice Centre or the Innocence Project London, while preparing for the Solicitors Qualifying Exam (SQE). In your final year, you can tailor your expertise through optional modules such as commercial law, intellectual property, or international law. Upon graduation, you will be well-positioned for a career in the legal sector, with the unique opportunity to pursue an accelerated US Juris Doctor degree through our partnership with Mitchell Hamline School of Law.
