The Law Joint Honours degree, under the Joint Honours Scheme, allows you to combine your study of law with one or two other subjects. Popular combinations are Law and Criminology, Law and Psychology, or all three.
There is a wide range of exciting and interesting law options for you to choose from in either private or public law depending on your interest, providing you with the flexibility to select options which will complement the other subjects you are planning to study with law.
As an example if you are studying Law and Criminology and have an interest in crime, you may wish to choose Criminal Law, Law of Evidence and Police Powers and the Law. Alternatively, if you are studying Law and Business you may wish to select Contract Law, Commercial Law, Consumer Law, or Corporate Law. You will also have the opportunity to develop your particular interests by studying a subject of your choice in more depth as part of your Independent Studies in your final year.
