Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Law and Politics

At the University of Stirling, our innovative Law courses give students an opportunity to study a range of subjects that reflect the importance of law in every area of society. We offer two BA (Hons) courses – in Law and Business Law – which can kick-start a career in the modern legal market, such as legal analyst roles or a host of business settings.

Throughout the course, the students willl be taught by leading academics who helped write the textbooks they are studying. At Stirling, their expertise comes to students first-hand, and they will be part of a close-knit legal department dedicated to providing a rich, enjoyable student experience. From Contract and Criminal Law to International Human Rights, the students willl gain a firm grounding in essential subjects and enjoy the freedom to specialise in areas that interest you most. The students can also broaden their career possibilities by combining Law with one of 11 other complementary courses that include Accountancy, Marketing and modern languages.

In addition, we make sure the students graduate with the communication, organisational and personal skills prospective employers are looking for – qualities that students can refine further by spending a semester studying abroad or undertaking a work placement. Our graduates are working as everything from trainee solicitors to business development managers, highlighting the diverse opportunities a BA in Law from the University of Stirling opens up.
