Practically minded and future focused, our close links with Aston Business School and a strong network of employer links will help you put theory into practice.
Successful lawyers need more than legal knowledge. Our qualifying law degree at Aston University’s Law School has been designed with modern legal practice in mind, including real-world examples and practical opportunities, as we focus on the business of law, the future of law and the law of business.
What you’ll learn
You will study the key foundations of law and choose a pathway tailored to reflect your interests and career aspirations. You’ll also have the opportunity to complete an internship with a major law firm, choose to spend your third year on an integrated placement and we also offer extracurricular experiences such as working in our community law clinics and mooting – in 2019 our mooting final was held at the Supreme Court in London, judged by Lord Lloyd-Thomas. Plus, you could publish your work in the Aston Student Law Review.
As well the diverse backgrounds of our teaching academics, we also invite external experts to contribute to the course and host an annual Law Fair to network with law firms, businesses and potential graduate employers.
By doing this degree you will gain more than legal knowledge, you will also develop critical thinking, problem solving and communication skills, together with essential professional and soft skills. This will enhance your employability and prepare you for a wide range of careers, including as a solicitor or barrister, one of the emerging careers in the law sector, in management or as an entrepreneur.
As an Aston LLB graduate you can proceed directly to the Legal Practice Course or Bar Professional Training Course. You will also be well positioned for the new Solicitors Qualifying Examination with our range of option modules.
This course also offers an optional placement year. Aston’s professional work placements can greatly improve your chance of securing a graduate job. Placements give you experience, confidence, opportunities and, as an Aston student, you’ll be better prepared for your future career. One of the great things about Aston is our focus on employability, and our close links with businesses, industries and professions make this possible.
