A golden opportunity to spend a year in Westminster on placement forms part of this unique law degree. Gain a thorough understanding of law and political systems from leading experts, then turn that theoretical knowledge into practice.In our Legal Advice Centre and Mediation Centre, you’ll get the chance to help actual clients with real legal problems.

Why study at Hull?



Westminster Placement

: Spend a year in Westminster working for an MP or peer, gaining valuable parliamentary experience. Many graduates have built successful careers here, earning them the nickname the ‘Hull Mafia’.


Shape Your Degree

: Personalise your degree with a range of options taught by legal and parliamentary experts. Develop sought-after skills, such as conducting independent political research.

Where could this take me?

Our LLB programmes will provide you with the foundations you’ll need for a legal career. Many of our graduates become solicitors, barristers or legal executives. The placement year in Westminster and the political element of the course can also open doors for careers in politics, such as political research or in local government. But the skills and knowledge you’ll gain are highly regarded by employers across a wide range of industries and employers, such as the Civil Service, financial services, education, the HM Armed Forces and more.
