Law in the National Student Survey (2009)1.Undergraduate Law
The University of Exeter is an exciting and lively place to study Law. We are committed to providing high quality research-led teaching at the University’s campuses in both Exeter and Cornwall. Our undergraduate programmes offer you an outstanding student experience, with first class teaching, a variety of employability events and opportunities for skills development, excellent facilities, and active student-led law societies.
We have an excellent track record of graduate employment, enjoying extremely good relations with members of the legal profession regionally, nationally and internationally. Numerous employers target the University when recruiting new graduates and we retain strong links with our alumni, many of whom occupy senior positions in the legal field in the UK and overseas.
A number of our Single Honours programmes are available to study on both campuses however as part of a strategy to strengthen the School of Law, the LLB in Cornwall will move to the Streatham Campus in Exeter from 2013. The aim is to concentrate the teaching expertise and research resources of both campuses in one location, improving module choice across the School and enhancing the student experience.
If you join us to study the LLB in Cornwall in September 2011 you will spend your first and second years in Cornwall and your final year at the Streatham Campus where you will benefit from the changes we are making.
Joint Honours with Law programmes will be retained at the Cornwall Campus for 2011 entry. Should you join us for these programmes you will be based at the Cornwall Campus for the duration of your programme, including your final year in 2013/14.
As a Joint Honours with Law student, you will receive a significant part of the taught Law component of your programme in years one and two. Your final year will be aligned to the research themes of our new Environment and Sustainability Institute (ESI); clean technology, natural environment, and social science and sustainability. This will give the Joint Honours with Law programme an original focus and will be part of a wider engagement with the environment which is becoming a distinctive feature of the Cornwall Campus.
From 2012, Law in Cornwall will be offered to prospective undergraduate students exclusively through the Flexible Combine Honours (FCH) route, and will continue to be aligned to the research themes of the ESI. This structure will enable students to engage with the challenging but rewarding subject of environmental law as part of a tailored degree programme.
