The programme at Birkbeck, University of London emphasises the importance of an academic and intellectually challenging approach to the study of law, and of its institutions and processes.
The LLM Qualifying Law Degree puts the study of law within the wider socio-economic and political framework, giving students a social-political grounding in the law.
