- We’re one of the highest-rated courses in the country. We're number 1 in the UK for student satisfaction (Complete University Guide Law League Table 2024).

You'll be part of an environment that champions human rights, social justice and the international rule of law.- You’ll not only get a qualifying law degree, but the course has also been developed in anticipation of the new Solicitors Qualifying Examinations (SQE). Training for these is integrated throughout the degree, with the option to take an SQE module in your final year.- As a Goldsmiths student, you will also benefit from discounted access to SQE Prep with leading external provider BARBRI.- Future lawyers need a diverse range of skills. As well as grounding you in the fundamentals, you’ll also learn about subjects from big data to social media.- This degree is active, so you won't just be sitting and reading. You'll learn problem-solving, debating and advocating through a range of activities.- We're ahead of the curve, offering subjects like AI and disruptive technologies.- You'll benefit from our excellence in the fields of creative arts, humanities and social sciences, with optional modules in subjects like art, media, human rights and technology.- You'll visit the Supreme Court, Old Bailey, and leading commercial law sets. You’ll also attend Parliamentary committees and debates as well as relevant theatre productions, exhibitions and film screenings to enrich your studies.- You’ll work closely with eminent legal thinkers, internationally leading barristers and politicians. Our Visiting Professors are some of the greatest legal minds of our generation.- You’ll benefit from a variety of guest speakers who are experts in their fields. From practising legal professionals to solicitors from ‘Magic Circle’ law firms, and members of the Crown Prosecution Service to representatives from NGOs and the technologies sector.- In Goldsmiths’ Law and Policy Clinics, you'll get to confront challenging societal issues through supervised legal research and public engagement activity. Areas of research and public engagement activity covered by the Clinics include immigration, the law of financial wrongdoing, police interrogation, and counter-terrorism law.- We’re the first law department in the UK to offer students free access to Harvard Law School’s pioneering Zero-L course.- We take our students on an annual international court visit. - We also organise an annual summer school in Athens, in collaboration with leading universities there.
