Law

Law at Reading focuses heavily on the practical side of the profession. You will develop your legal knowledge and skills through placements and co-curricular activities, such as pro bono work, whilst experiencing the beauty of a university campus-based law school.

Whether or not you have already studied Law, our LLB course will give you a thorough understanding of the workings of the legal system.

We place great importance on the practical aspects of the law, and host one of the largest pro bono programmes in the UK. Through your voluntary activities – with local charities and other institutions – you will give legal advice and support to real people with real problems.

Our flexible Law course allows you to select modules from outside the school, including those offered by Modern Languages and Henley Business School.

The study of Law prepares students not only for the legal profession but also for a diverse range of careers. Intellectual strength, a practical approach to the world and the ability to communicate clearly are skills highly valued by employers within local and national government, international organisations, the voluntary sector, and business.
