What the college says

The course aims to give students an overview of how the law works and inspire, nurture and develop them as learners. The skills and knowledge developed during this course provides excellent life skills as well as provide valuable analytical skills which can be applied to any degree course. Since Law involves precise definition and use of words; constructing and challenging arguments; the Course will require a considerable amount of wider reading and research in order to keep abreast of legal developments and the fluid nature of the subject. Moreover, as it is a literary subject the quality of writing and expression is fundamental. In the first year students will learn about how the law works and how the law is made within England. Students will gain an understanding of the court systems, legal personnel and how to access justice through legal funding. Alongside that students will look at liability within Criminal law and the rules of Tort. Criminal law includes criminal liability through a study of offences against the person, such as murder and manslaughter and offences against property such as theft and burglary. Within law making and tort, students will cover how laws are made and interpreted including the influence of EU law and look at liability in negligence, occupier’s liability and remedies that are available to victims. In the second year students will cover the nature of law which looks at how the law interacts with morality, justice, society and technology. Student
