School of Law

For future barristers, solicitors, and those interested in the legal sphere

About the school

Studying law is a great basis for becoming a solicitors or a barrister and also for people who want to gain relevant and transferable skills that can be applied across a broad range of professions. At Arden University’s School of Law, we teach you fundamental career skills such as critical analysis and communication, helping you develop professional qualities that are highly desirable for employers in the legal sector as well as huge variety of other industries, from journalism and politics to policing or teaching.

All the academic staff here at the School Law are committed to exploring innovative and exciting ways of teaching to ensure that we provide you with a unique university experience.

The legal landscape is constantly evolving by its very nature, therefore one of our principal commitments is to provide you with up to date syllabus content so that you stay on top of any changes occurring in the industry as you study with us. As part of this, our Law LLB (Hons) has recently been revised to mirror the requirements of the new SQE examinations for trainee solicitors.
