LLB (Hons) Law with Business with Foundation Year
Course Overview
Our 4-year law with business degree, known as an LLB or Bachelor of Law, is equivalent to a BA or BSc. This course is ideal for students interested in pursuing a career in law and wishing to understand its operation in a business environment.
A law degree is widely respected whether you want to become a solicitor, barrister, or in-house lawyer. As a qualifying law degree (QLD), this course is essential if you are considering a career as a solicitor or a barrister. The degree allows you to continue to move on to the next stage of training to enter the legal profession: The BPTC for barristers or the LPC/SQE for solicitors.
Regent’s LLB in Law with Business is perfect if you prefer to learn in smaller seminar groups with individual attention. Our classes typically stay under 30 students to ensure each person receives the necessary attention and support in their development. An industry-leading faculty of expert tutors and academics from various disciplines across industry and academia teach our LLB.
The course offers flexible study options, allowing you to choose which learning style works best for you. We are pleased to offer all Regent students access to our unique personal, leadership and growth programme, Thinking into Character. Designed to help you understand, manage, and lead yourself effectively to succeed in all areas of your professional career.
Why study this course?
