About the course

Fast-track your LLB study with our 2-year LLB Law (Accelerated) degree programme. Incorporating light-touch summer study, and completed over two years rather than the usual three, this intensive course will be ideal for career-motivated individuals, keen to enter legal practice with an LLB in a shorter timeframe. In addition to Law foundation subjects, which will equip you with the legal grounding and expertise to thrive in your future career, you will choose from an exciting array of optional Law modules tailored to your interests and aspirations. By completing this innovative degree, you will combine rigorous academic study with practice or skills focused modules and placement and outreach opportunities, equipping you with the skills, knowledge and real-world experience desired by today’s legal employers.

　　This programme provides you with the opportunity to study for your LLB Law degree in the condensed time frame of 2 years, placing you on a fast-track pathway towards a career in legal practice. Suitable for highly motivated individuals, this programme is delivered over three semesters in each of your two years of study.

　　Your degree programme will be anchored by in depth coverage of core, ‘foundational’ Law subjects, including Criminal Law, Trusts, European Union Law in Context, Contract, Tort, Property/Land Law and Public Law (Constitutional Law, Administrative Law and Human Rights). You will benefit from modules designed specifically to enhance your legal, digital, communication and presentation skills. An array of option module choices are available, allowing you to explore contemporary issues in family law, disability law, commercial, employment law (and more), or you may choose from a selection of professional legal practice modules, geared to preparing you for your journey to employment.

　　Modules running in the summer periods (Semester 3) have been designed to enable you to work efficiently and flexibly. Benefitting from significant tutor support, you will balance independent study and research with projects, placements and experiential learning. During the summer of Year 1, you will take up (and train for) a CAB (Citizens Advice Bureau) Placement, delivering advice to clients on a wide range of issues. In Year 2, our Community Legal Outreach module offers you access to our CLOCK programme (Community Legal Outreach Collaboration Keele). Here, you may choose to train as a Community Legal Companion, supporting litigants in person and working with third sector organisations. In each case, your invaluable experience will be captured through reflective writing. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
