The School of Law is one of the top providers of postgraduate taught programmes in law and criminology. You'll also find support and encouragement here throughout your degree. In joining us you become part of a body of highly valued postgraduate students with their own identity, sense of community and dedicated study facilities.

Our taught programmes can all be taken full-time over one year, except the MA Law which is a full-time course over two years. Some of our programmes are also available part-time, and details of this are given in the individual programme description.

We offer a broad range of programmes at Postgraduate Taught level in specialised areas of law and criminology as well as two programmes taught jointly with the Department of Politics.

We also offer the Graduate Diploma in Law (GDL) and two-year MA Law for those who have not studied law at undergraduate level.

More information on course content including our new courses, eligibility and application procedures is available for each individual programme in our programme guides.
