A law degree from Kent opens doors, not only into the legal profession but to many other areas, such as politics, business, the civil service and the NGO sector.**<br/><br/>**Overview**<br/><br/>Kent Law School is renowned for its world-leading research and an approach which enables you to think critically about law within the broader context of society, considering its role and impact, and the potential it has to change the world we live in.<br/><br/>**Our Law with a Foundation Year - LLB (Hons) degree programme**<br/><br/>Law with a Foundation Year extends access to the degree to students from a wide variety of qualifications and educational backgrounds. It is the ideal programme if you have completed a university entry level qualification but have grades below the level required for entry to the degree directly.<br/><br/>During the Foundation Year you complete modules which prepare you for the study of Law, and which develop your academic skills to enable you to confidently progress to a university degree. Upon successful completion of the Foundation Year at the required level (see below), you move on to the first year of our Law LLB (Hons) programme.<br/><br/>Law is a stimulating degree that sharpens your thinking and your powers of persuasion while giving you extensive legal knowledge. You study the detail of the law, as well as its history. You analyse judgments and legal developments while taking into account the political, ethical and social dimensions of the law. This critical approach enhances what is already a fascinating subject.<br/><br/>Teaching on the Law degree takes place via lectures, small group seminars and case studies. Our popular mooting programme, hosted in a dedicated space within the £5m Wigoder Law Building, gives you the chance to develop advocacy skills in a simulated courtroom setting before a bench comprised of local judges, practising barristers, solicitors and lecturers.<br/><br/>Kent Law School has a supportive environment and your lecturers have office hours where they provide guidance on a one-to-one basis. We also provide:<br/><br/>• the Skills Hub offering tailored guidance, five days a week in term time<br/>• a law librarian to guide you in the use of online and printed resources.<br/><br/>As a foundation year student, you are a full member of the University and can take part in all student activities.<br/><br/>**Progression requirements from the Foundation Year to the LLB**<br/><br/>To progress from the Foundation Year to the LLB in Law, students must pass all components of the Foundation year with a 60% overall average including 60% in Academic Skills Development and 60% in the Law module.<br/><br/>**Accreditation**<br/><br/>All of our undergraduate Law degrees contain the foundations of legal knowledge required by the Bar Standards Board to satisfy the academic component of professional training for intending barristers, and provide a strong foundation for students who wish to take the Solicitors Qualifying Examinations (SQE).<br/><br/>**Study resources**<br/><br/>Kent Law Clinic is based within our new, purpose-built building.
