Graduate keen to pursue a career in law with choice for future practice? Aberdeen Law School offers the opportunity of a highly-ranked two-year LLB programme for graduates in other subjects with a good honours degree. You’ll gain all the benefits of combining our trademark breadth, depth, choice and quality at the highly-ranked Aberdeen Law School, with all the necessary subjects to proceed to the next stage of academic training in Scotland, England , Wales or Northern Ireland.This LLB Accelerated Law with English Law programme is a graduate law degree which allows non-law graduates to achieve a dual-qualifying Scots and English LLB in just two years. If you already have a good undergraduate degree in a subject other than law, this is your route to qualifying (in any of the UK's four jurisdictions) without any compromise on quality. Places are limited and this is a very highly sought programme.


Our Law School is ranked Top 100 in the World by the Times Higher Education World University Subject Ranking 2022.

Law at Aberdeen looks at the historical, social, political and economic forces that influence our legal systems and govern our societies. You’ll learn to think like a lawyer rather than just 'learn' law.A major factor in our quality is the calibre and enthusiasm of our staff, testing your mental agility with complex, realistic legal scenarios as you get to grips with criminal, public and private law, legal systems, contracts, human rights, and explore family law, the law of property, and legal aspects of the EU. You’ll also have opportunity to hone your legal skills in student-led initiatives such as mock legal debating, the law Review, and our community law clinic.Should you practise law, you'll enjoy a wide variety of career options within the law itself. However more than a third of Aberdeen law graduates now choose to use their law degree as a passport for entry into a wide range of careers including business, media, finance and banking, teaching, governmental bodies and departments, and the police force.


Graduates

wishing to apply for an LLB must apply for the 2-year LLB Accelerated degree –


Law Accelerated (M115)

or


Law with English Law Accelerated (M116)

. Tuition fees for the Accelerated programmes are at a separate rate. In the event that a Graduate undertakes a 4-year or 5-year LLB degree, please note that tuition fees are charged each year of study at the same rate as those set for the Accelerated programme.
