Course summary

About This Course

This pathway gives you a unique opportunity to study key areas of sociology and social policy that affect the law, such as policing, sentencing, court systems, housing, welfare and immigration. Gaining knowledge and experience in such issues will give you an excellent foundation for success in a wide range of exciting careers, such as the legal profession, probation, police, social work, government and beyond.

The course is designed to foster your intellectual independence. Youll be supported to develop the confidence and skills needed to think critically, to ask and answer cogent questions about law and its role in society, and to effectively communicate your reasoned arguments, orally or in writing.

You will acquire new knowledge and understanding of the principles and values of law and justice, and youll learn how law can be used to benefit individuals and societies, including the most marginalised in our community.

During the course you will study the fundamental areas of legal knowledge. For example, Public Law where youll learn about how the country is organised and run Criminal Law which includes examining punishment and the rehabilitation of individuals who break the law, and Contract Law where youll learn about how legal agreements are made and operate between people and companies. In addition to this you will have the opportunity to study topics such as From Cradle to Grave, World Poverty and Inequality and Race, Democracy and Political Ideology.

Careers

A Bangor Law degree opens up exciting career paths in law and in many other rewarding areas where you can make a difference to people's lives and the planet.

Throughout your studies youll acquire the academic knowledge and be introduced to the skills needed to pursue a legal career should you wish to go on to qualify as a solicitor or barrister. You may wish to work in the public sector as a government lawyer, or in the private sector, specialising in commercial law, immigration law or criminal law.

If you dont want to practise as a solicitor or barrister, you may still wish to work in an area where your legal training and knowledge would be advantageous and where you can work to make a positive difference. Many non-governmental organisations (charities) require people with legal backgrounds to work as policy officers, campaigners and advice workers. International organisations, such as the United Nations offer tremendous opportunities to those who are looking for an international career.

Youll also have the opportunity to choose from exciting law optional modules such as International Law, Commercial Law, Human Rights, Philosophy of Law and Family Law. If you choose our Work Placement module you will get the opportunity to experience legal work in a real-life situation.

You will be an active participant in your learning. Its not all about sitting and reading. You'll learn the skills of debating, advocating and negotiating through a range of module and extra-curricular opportunities. Youll also benefit from professional development activities, trips to government and judicial institutions, and from a wide range of guest speakers.
