Bachelor of Law [L.L.B] (Law with Criminology)
Field of Study:
$26,650 /Yr
We were named joint 2nd in the UK for Course Satisfaction - Guardian University Guide and best in the North East for Satisfaction with Feedback - Guardian University Guide. In the latest Research Excellence Framework (REF), Law research at Sunderland was recognised as 'internationally excellent'.
Law is a very versatile degree that is highly valued in all professions, and itÕs also the first step towards a career in the legal profession.
Our LLB Law course is unusual because we give you the option of a 'dual qualification'. We offer a mix of modules that allow you to qualify as a graduate paralegal, so you can start working in law as soon as you graduate. The option of a 'dual qualification' is an important advantage that marks out SunderlandÕs course from many others.
Our teaching team has wide professional and academic experience. We are fortunate to have excellent facilities at Sunderland, including a mock courtroom where you can practice your skills in advocacy. There is nothing like standing up in court and arguing legal principles to prepare you for a legal career Ð and at Sunderland we prepare you for it every step of the way.
Career options
A law course does not commit you to following a career in the law Ð although it is a useful stepping stone if you choose to do so. It encourages general skills of clear thinking, logical argument and effective writing that are valuable in many different professions and sectors.
If you decide to follow a legal path, there are three options once you have completed your course:
- Legal Practice Course (for solicitors)
- Bar Vocational Course (for barristers)
- A job as a paralegal, using your qualification from Sunderland
Paralegals starting salaries can be between £12,000 and £20,000 a year, increasing up to £25,000 a year with a few yearsÕ experience. With further experience and qualifications, this can rise to £40,000 a year or more. Salaries for qualified solicitors range from £25,000 to £70,000. Partners in large firms or heads of in-house legal departments can earn in excess of £100,000. Barristers can expect to earn between £73,000 and £210,000 a year (source: National Careers Service).
