Our Exchange ProgrammesThe School of Law has an extensive exchange programme with over 40 partner universities across the globe. All Law students at Sheffield are able to go abroad for a year as part of their studies and study Law. For some degrees, a year abroad is a compulsory part of the degree: students on the LLB Law (European and International) degree study Law in English at one of our partner institutions, and students on the LLB Law with French, German or Spanish degrees study in those languages at one of our partners in France, Belgium, Germany or Spain. Each year, the School also welcomes the highest number of visiting Erasmus/exchange students of any UK Law School. Students interested in coming to Sheffield to study must be nominated by their home University. Please note that the School of Law does not participate in the University Study Abroad scheme. |
Opportunities for Overseas StudyAll Law students in the School can apply to spend a year of study abroad. If you are a student on the LLB Law (European and International) and LLB Law with French/German/Spanish degrees, then you must go abroad as part of your degree, at year three. If you are a student on the LLB Law or LLB Law and Criminology degrees, then you can apply during your second year of studies to transfer to the LLB Law (with a year abroad) or LLB Law and Criminology (with a year abroad) and spend year 3 abroad, returning to complete your degree at Sheffield in year 4. |
