Law is an exciting and dynamic subject that governs every aspect of our lives from conception to exhumation. It is a vital discipline and one which is respected by many universities because of the essential skills it develops. You will learn how the legal justice system operates in both civil and criminal law and study key criminal offences/defences. WHAT UNITS/TOPICS WILL BE STUDIED? During this course you will study key aspects of the English Legal System such as the Court structures, Juries and Legal funding. We’ll also look at more discursive elements such as law and morality – is it the function of the law to impose morality? And whether the Rule of Law is respected. We will also focus on areas of ‘substantive law’ such as the law of Tort covering negligence and occupiers’ liability, as well as Criminal Law, examining topics such as murder, non-fatal offences and property offences. Law will develop essential academic skills such as effective reading, analysing factual scenarios, problem solving and formulating and presenting effective argument.
