Modules by Year
Foundation Year
Core modules (students are required to take):

Academic Skills and Studying with Confidence
We'll help you develop core academic skills such as using electronic resources, planning and note-taking, communication skills related to essay and report writing and delivering presentations. You'll learn how to manage your time, how to prioritise and how to manage stress, and you’ll become more confident in engaging with collaborative learning, debates, discussions and critical reflection.
Law Project
You’ll study an area of interest related to your chosen future academic specialisation or area of legal practice interest. You’ll work individually on your project, whether that's a written report, a presentation and oral examination, a film or a series of blog posts. You’ll undertake problem-solving learning, with formative feedback and support provided throughout, helping develop your self-confidence.
Law Foundations
This module will introduce you to foundation legal principles and concepts. You will explore various fundamentals of law - including their connection with the English legal system - focusing on interesting and topical contexts, cases and principles as well as the way the law is reported, how citations work and how to research cases.
Law and Society
This module will encourage you to engage with the broader implications of law in society. Drawing on examples from topical legal areas and legal practice, you’ll develop an understanding of the nature of common law and legal precedent within UK Law, in distinction from civil code systems. You will take part in seminars and group work to explore selected case studies and reports and locate additional information through reference resources.
