Course Overview
At ARU London, you can take your first step towards becoming a solicitor or barrister, as our course will qualify you for the next stage of your legal training. You will study both academic and practical aspects of the law, which not only prepares you for a legal career but will also give you many skills that are highly valued in other occupations.
As you go through our core modules, you'll be developing key knowledge of fundamental features of the UK and EU legal systems, and the context in which the law operates. All this, while engaging in critical analysis with peers, solving legal problems, and undertaking independent research, flexing your ability to construct complex legal arguments.
If you want to proceed to the vocational stage of training as a barrister or solicitor (bar professional training course), this LLB is your first step. You might also choose to work in private practice as a paralegal, carrying out many of the tasks and roles of a qualified solicitor. Our students go on to a wide range of careers. Some, of course, go on to the next stage of training to become solicitors and barristers. Others go on to work as paralegals. And others use their LLB in a variety of other professions, including banking, commerce, government, and teaching.
Graduates will have a solid understanding of the English Legal System, including its core concepts, values, principles, and rules, along with the main legal institutions and procedures. They will also demonstrate knowledge of key areas such as the law of obligations, property law, and criminal law, and understand the relationship between English law and European frameworks, including EU and human rights law.
The aims of the LLB (Hons) degree are to:
- Meet the requirements of the Solicitors Regulation Authority in respect of the academic stage of training, by helping students prepare for the Solicitors Qualifying Exams.
- Prepare a foundation for students interested in choosing alternative careers in law, such as barristers or chartered legal executives.
- Furthermore, the course provides a structured approach to the development of study and transferable skills (such as critical analysis, oral and written presentational skills, and the ability to work independently) which are central to many other types of employment.
