The LLB Law with Politics degree at Swansea University is a specialised programme that combines the study of law with an in-depth exploration of political systems, governance, and the dynamics of power.
Grounded in a commitment to academic excellence, and informed by research, the programme combines both theory and practice, enabling you to gain a detailed understanding of how legal frameworks operate within broader political, social, and economic contexts, while critically examining the role of law in shaping governance and public policy.
You will gain a comprehensive understanding of the foundations of legal knowledge, including Contract Law, Tort Law, Criminal Law, Public Law, Land Law, Equity and Trusts, and EU Law. These core subjects satisfy the academic stage of training required by the Bar Standards Board, and provide a strong basis for those wishing to take the Solicitors Qualifying Examination.
As you progress you can develop specialist expertise in political topics such as global environmental politics and British public policy, allowing you to pursue your interests while developing specialist expertise across two complementary disciplines.
Our LLB Law with Politics programmes place a strong emphasis on equipping you with the skills necessary for professional life. The curriculum is carefully designed to reflect the evolving landscape of legal education, including the changes introduced by the Solicitors Qualifying Examination (SQE), while maintaining the value of a traditional law degree.
You will develop a broad range of skills, such as legal writing, oral presentation and problem-solving, and the inclusion of multiple-choice question (MCQ) assessments, which are a key feature of the SQE, ensures that you are prepared for contemporary professional requirements.
Opportunities to gain real-world experience are embedded throughout the degree, including participation in the Law Clinic, where you can provide advice to clients under supervision, and there are opportunities to take part in mooting, negotiation, and client interviewing competitions.
