LLB - the Qualifying Law Degree

The LLB Single Honours Degree is a Qualifying Law Degree for the purposes of the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) and the Bar Standards Board (BSB) and allows you to progress directly to the Legal Practice Course (LPC) or the Bar Vocational Course (BVC).

You will be taught by experienced professionals including qualified solicitors and barristers, and experience the type of work you’ll be expected to carry out in a law firm.

Staffordshire University Law School is the place to learn cutting-edge skills in a life-like environment. You’ll have the opportunity to develop advocacy skills in an authentic courtroom setting as well as access to a dedicated law library which is why you’ll enter solicitors’ offices and barristers’ chambers already equipped to meet the challenges you’ll face.
