There are several opportunities within the course to engage with real-life scenarios and consider the changing world that we live in, whilst developing practical skills needed by legal professionals, such as drafting solicitor file notes. If you enjoy thinking logically and wish to develop desirable higher-order critical thinking skills, Applied Law could be the course for you.

Dispute Solving in Civil Law is assessed externally which is completed on the computer in the style of a solicitor's letter and file notes.

Other possible routes include a degree apprenticeship, which includes some time at university combined with on hands experience in a law firm. There are a variety of careers which could stem from studying Applied Law(some would need further study at university or college), such as being a solicitor, barrister, legal secretary, typist, human resources personnel, paralegal, legal executive and court clerk.
