Law

Overview

If you’re looking to make the change into legal study and already have an undergraduate degree in another discipline then our GDL is your pathway into legal practice.

Many employers favour GDL students in an increasingly competitive legal job market. Through studying another degree subject, and building your career in another discipline, you will have gained many transferable skills. By choosing law at a later stage than some others, you are showing motivation and determination to pursue a new career. Employers actively seek candidates with these benefits.

When you study the Law programme from University of Liverpool with us you will:

• Learn to think like a lawyer and develop practical legal skills through small group workshops and problem-based learning
• Be ready to complete your legal training and go on to study the LPC or BPC
• Explore an area of law that interests you via your own Research Project or our unique Law of Organisations module
• Spread out your study and exams with our structured modular study pattern, so you can focus on key areas each semester and complete exams as you go, instead of all at the end of the year
• Enjoy flexible study – choose to study full-time or part-time at one of our locations nationwide, or online
• Receive access to our award-winning careers support to help you with your training contract and pupillage applications
• Be taught by qualified lawyers, with lectures and practical workshops to develop your legal skills
