Introduction to Law
Legal systems, UK law principles, sources of law, courts and legal reasoning.
A broad, intellectually stimulating foundation across three interconnected fields — equipping you with critical thinking, research, and analytical skills for degrees in Law, International Relations, Politics, Psychology, Journalism, and more.
This pathway spans two fields: Humanities (History, Media, Literature) and Law (UK Political Science, legal principles). Students develop proficiency in critical analysis, evidence gathering, and argument evaluation.
You'll also develop an appreciation for differences in society's culture and human behaviour — essential for degrees that engage with people, institutions, and global issues. IELTS preparation is integrated throughout.
