Innovative Teaching
Teaching and learning
Our innovative approach supplements our face-to-face teaching with online technologies, ensuring our LLB remains at the forefront of pioneering legal education.
Our undergraduate programmes are sector leaders for innovative teaching techniques. Our knowledge-based lectures and skills sessions will not just teach you the law, but will equip you with wider skills necessary for your academic studies and future legal practice. Learning is then consolidated in 2-hour workshops, allowing you to develop your ideas and strengthen your knowledge and understanding of the particular topics.
All LLB lectures are recorded and are placed on to our bespoke intranet system, StudyNet, to watch on demand.
Assessment methods
Our assessment strategy on the LLB is one of the most advanced in the sector. We use a variety of typical methods to assess student performance including exams, essays and dissertations.
In addition to this, by the time you graduate you will have drafted a contract, taken part in mediation, engaged in advocacy and provided legal advice.
Supporting your studies
We pride ourselves on offering our students all the support they need to succeed in their studies. This includes:
- A designated Student Support Tutor - your point of contact during your time with us
- Flexibility to allow you to study for your degree while balancing other commitments
- Extensive module guides for each subject
- Substantial feedback on returned assessments
- Consolidation classes in the lead up to examinations
- A Learning Resources Centre open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week
- Numerous extracurricular activities such as Advocacy, Streetlaw and Debating
- Frequent networking opportunities with members of the legal profession.
