As a Canadian student from the Trent/Swansea Dual Degree programme offered through Trent University, Swansea University has felt like a home away from home.

I am thrilled to have this amazing opportunity to get my legal education in this charming coastal city. If you are looking to study law in a breathtaking location where you can explore and travel abroad while being surrounded by a supportive and inclusive community, then I would absolutely recommend coming to Swansea. One of my favourite aspects is the Swansea Law Clinic where students can gain valuable first-hand experience in a practical legal environment. I believe that practical learning experience in a supervised environment is essential to building the transferable skills that you need for a successful career in any field.
