Law and German Bachelor of Law (with Honours) - LLB (Hons)

Our joint programmes allow you to study law alongside another academic discipline. Over four years of study, you will take a range of courses from both the Law School and the School of Literatures, Languages and Cultures.

The joint LLB Law and German programme aims to promote advanced knowledge and understanding of the theory, concepts and rules of law while allowing you to gain a professional standard of German.

On this programme, you will get the chance to gain professional skills in all aspects of German, including:

* reading and listening

* writing and translating

* speaking and presenting

You will develop an understanding of how German-language culture has had an international influence for centuries.

Our courses explore German-language literature, film and theatre, all within the context of historical and political developments.

This programme includes a compulsory year abroad in Year 3 at an institution that teaches in German. This gives you the chance to have a culturally immersive experience in another country, while also developing your legal and language skills.
