This 2-year programme is designed for graduates with a degree in a non-law subject who are keen to join the legal profession in Canada. You'll gain a qualifying law degree that is recognised in England and Wales. The dedicated Constitutional Law of Canada module provides excellent preparation for the National Committee on Accreditation (NCA) exam.

Our intensive accelerated LLB programme offers the possibility of a qualifying law degree in just 2 years. If you wish to follow the Juris Doctor (JD) pathway, you can opt to study the Constitutional Law of Canada module. You'll also become proficient in all the subjects required for a qualifying law degree. 

Our course tutors are active researchers who bring the latest legal developments, and their passion for their area of expertise, to the curriculum. 

As part of your degree you can:

• gain work experience alongside legal professionals by advising students at the Law Clinic
• engage with our academic research groups including the Stefan Cross Centre for Women, Equality and Law, and the Institute of Maritime Law
• prepare for the Canadian National Committee on Accreditation (NCA) exam which you can arrange to take after you graduate

After taking the National Committee on Accreditation (NCA) exam, you may be ready to train to practise law outside of England and Wales. You should check with the relevant governing bodies in your chosen area to make sure that a 2-year LLB programme meets their requirements.
