The University of Law prospectus 2017/18

CONNECTING TO SUCCESS With more than 100 years of experience training lawyers and business professionals, we have established strong connections with a range of firms, chambers and employers in prestigious organisations. We regularly consult with our clients to ensure we are keeping pace with the industry, adapting our courses to stay relevant and give you the skills and commercial awareness that will set you up for success. Our panel of visiting professors from leading law firms help to reinforce this principle, passing on their excellent legal knowledge and skills through lectures and seminars.

GLOBAL CONNECTIONS In an increasingly international economy we know how important it is to remain connected to the wider world, which is why we work with top law firms across the globe and have strong links with law schools and professional bodies throughout Europe and the rest of the world. EVENTS TO CONNECT We host a series of events to give you the opportunity to learn from professionals across the sector, as well as begin networking with industry leaders. These range from panel events to our annual National Law Fair, which attracts over 30 top law firms looking to recruit our students onto their training contracts. INSPIRING SUPPORT Our mentoring scheme has been running for over ten years, with support ranging from first seat trainees through to senior partners. Open to all postgraduate students, it is designed to provide one-to-one contact with practising lawyers, who can pass on their knowledge and experience.
