We teach the law that matters. We are ‘freer, more daring and more experimental’ than a traditional law school, so your legal education is relevant and responsive to the needs of a changing society. Our approach is global in outlook, based on justice, and engaged with real-world problems.LLB Law with History will give you a thorough training in the complementary disciplines of law and history, by developing critical, reflective, creative and analytical skills. In addition to emphasising aspects common to both subjects, you explore the differences between them, and the approaches taken within law and historical thought. You will also develop a critical awareness of the nature of law within its historical contexts.You will cover key topics from both Law and History, with the opportunity to choose from a wide range of optional modules too:- The American Revolution- The role of women in Early Modern England- Copyright and trademark law- International environmental law- The use of evidence- Human rightsThe School of Law specialises in commercial law, public law, and human rights law.
