MLaw (incorporating LLB(Hons)) Law and Practice - MLaw

University of Huddersfield

Our integrated Master’s in Law and Practice (MLaw) is a unique programme that incorporates a full LLB(Hons) Law degree, while also allowing you to obtain a Law Master’s degree. This rigorous but highly rewarding degree prepares you for an exciting career in law and advocacy, with special emphasis on supporting you to develop competencies for the Solicitors Qualifying Exams (SQE1 and SQE2).

This course aims to develop your skills in interviewing, advocacy, drafting legal documents, legal ethics/conducts/procedures, supporting you to develop a career as a solicitor in England and Wales. You’ll also gain a host of transferrable skills, such as how to construct an argument, how to communicate with clients, the importance of attention to detail and critical thinking, being creative, and the ability to work on your own and as a team. You can volunteer in the Legal Advice Centre, too, and the Moot Scheme, where you’ll witness law in action and develop competences to be a solicitor. Our Mentoring Scheme and the Law Careers Fair will allow you to network with our Partner Law firms, introducing you to opportunities for work experience/employment with them.

Our flexible course structures mean that you can wait until the end of Year 2 to decide whether you want to study on an academic course, i.e., LLB (Hons) Law or one of our practice-focused courses, i.e., Law and Practice or Master’s in Law and Practice.
