The LLB Law with Study Abroad degree is a four year single honours degree in law. The programme is largely the same as the standard LLB programme, but students spend their third year abroad studying at the National University of Singapore, the University of Hong Kong or the Universities of Kyushu, Nagoya or Niigata in Japan, where teaching is conducted in English. Students admitted to study LLB Law may apply to transfer to this degree at the end of their first year of study. Places are awarded on merit, on the basis of performance in first year examinations.
The Law School continually reviews its curricula. There are currently no planned changes, but any future changes will be published here in due course.
