You’ll develop a theoretical grounding through interactive lectures and seminars, with your knowledge assessed through essays, online exams, presentations, and a dissertation if you choose. You’ll also have opportunities to apply your knowledge through a range of practical experiences. These include group projects in our Hydra simulation suite, and the option to work with the community on legal problems in our Legal Advice Clinic. These practical experiences develop the ‘soft’ skills that are highly sought after by law firms around the world. As well as developing legal knowledge and skills, you’ll develop as a communicator and problem-solver

Studying at university is one of the most significant investments you'll ever make. Whilst you’re studying, you’ll have two main financial obligations – tuition fees and living costs. There’s a lot of financial help available from the University of South Wales and external funding sources, which may provide loans (that have to be repaid) and grants, scholarships, and bursaries (that don't).

*Full-time fees are per year. Part-time fees are per 20 credits. Once enrolled, the cost is anticipated to remain at the same rate throughout the duration of your study on this course, except as described below.

Please be aware that we may increase the maximum fee for home students on full-time undergraduate courses only where the Welsh Government increases the permitted level of inflation of fees. Fees for all students (including part-time, postgraduate, and international students) may be amended in accordance with our applicable Fees and Debt Management Policy.  We will ensure that students receive clear, intelligible, unambiguous, and timely information about our courses and costs promptly, well in advance of the next academic year.
