BA Law

Overview

In collaboration with the University of the West of Scotland, the BA Law (year 3), will be delivered at our Motherwell Campus (subject to approval).

The BA Law covers a wide range of legal subjects, meaning you are skilled in advising organisations on how to comply with their legal obligations and prepares you for success in legal or law-related settings.

This degree will equip you with a solid understanding of how law shapes our society, enabling you to embark on a career in a wide variety of employment sectors. You’ll also learn the knowledge and skills sought after by employers in law-related and business sectors.

Entry

Students must have an HND Legal Services with 15 SQA credits. 

Learn

Year 3 (SCQF Level 9) introduces the student to more critical approaches to law.

The purpose of this year of study is to enable students to develop skills in critical analysis through studying two core modules namely International Human Rights Law and Law Dissertation Skills. Year 3 provides much of the international comparisons within the programme and, where appropriate, students will study Scots law in the context of other global jurisdictions.  In addition modules may include Information and Communication Technology Law, Public International Law and Immigration and Asylum Law which allow students to specialise and partake in more independent learning. 

Our teaching staff will also provide a supportive learning environment and a flexible approach to study, to help you develop in-depth knowledge of areas related to your future career.

The delivery of the programme is designed in such a way as to maximise student participation and engagement with their learning.
