Law with Criminology LLB
This degree programme combines a comprehensive study of core legal principles with an in-depth exploration of criminology, focusing on the causes, consequences, and prevention of crime. You will gain essential legal knowledge, including Criminal Law and Public Law, and have the opportunity to specialise in areas like Immigration Law, Company Law, or Family Law in your final year. Alongside legal studies, you will delve into criminological topics such as the Foundations of Criminology and Policing and Society.
The course is designed to provide a holistic understanding of crime and the criminal justice system, complemented by practical, employability-focused opportunities. These include mentorship programmes, experience in the university's Legal Advice Centre, the Innocence Project London, and participation in moots and mock trials.
A unique benefit of this programme is the pathway to a US law degree. Graduates can pursue a Juris Doctor (JD) or LLM at Mitchell Hamline School of Law in the USA, completing their JD in just 15 months instead of the standard three years. Mitchell Hamline School of Law also offers scholarships of up to 50% for Greenwich graduates.
