For Combined Honours UCAS codes and entry requirements
Law affects all aspects of life and society and is the mechanism for change employed by governments across the globe. From the protection of life and liberty, through corporate law to international relations, the law is centre stage.
In Year 1 on the Combined Honours programme, students devote equal time to the study of each chosen subject. After Year 1, students can transfer to the Law Single Honours programme or continue on the Combined programme with Law.
The core subjects required by the Law Society and Bar Council for those seeking to become barristers or solicitors are covered by students who transfer to the Single Honours programme.
Students who take Law as a Combined Honours programme graduate with a BA and will not therefore have covered all of the core subjects. Although the BA is not a Qualifying Law Degree, BA students can apply to the professional bodies for part exemption from the academic stage of training depending on which core modules have been taken.
