Law with Hispanic Law UCL

Overview

The Law Faculty offers a wide range of subjects and employs a variety of teaching methods. The degree programme provides both a general liberal education and a basis for careers not only in the legal profession but also in fields as diverse as the civil service, local government, the social services, higher education, the armed forces, business, industry, the media, finance and accountancy.We start the first two weeks of the first academic year with a two-week induction programme: Laws' Connections: Legal Doctrine and Contemporary Challenges.  Laws' Connections is designed to be an inspiring introduction to the study of law here at UCL Laws, and to the role of law in addressing social challenges.

You will then study compulsory modules in Public Law, Contract Law, Property I and Criminal Law during Year 1 of the programme.  Students on the programme are also required to undertake a European Legal Studies (Spanish) module (taught in Spanish) in both Years 1 and 2 at UCL. In Year 1, the module introduces the general principles governing the law of contracts in Spanish Law.

What this course will give you

You will spend your third year abroad studying Hispanic Law at the Universidad Carlos III in Madrid.

The year spent abroad studying Spanish Law will enhance your critical analysis skills and equip you for the fourth and final year at UCL.

In your final Law with Hispanic Law year at  University College London (UCL) , you will be offered a wide range of modules which will give you the opportunity to explore certain fields more in depth and build an expertise.
