The BA Law and politics degree at The University of StrathclydeÊis concerned with the study of the obligations, duties and rights which every member of society has in relation to one another and to the state. Please note that studying law within the BA degree will not qualify you for entry to the legal profession. For professional qualifications in law, students follow the LLB programme.
The study of law is regarded not as purely vocational, but part of a broader education.
