Studying our Law with a Criminology degree allows you to tailor your studies to your interests. Gain a rich understanding of key concepts in your first year of study and experience our Work Based Learning module in the second year. Final-year students have the opportunity to focus their studies on areas of Law that particularly interest them, developing their skills within their chosen specialist modules before they graduate.
Outside of your studies, join our Law Society which hosts a variety of events throughout the year, gain an insight into law in the real world by volunteering with the department’s Legal Advice Clinic, or get involved with Chester Community Law Project, the Law School’s student-led outreach program which enables volunteers to use their legal knowledge to benefit our local community.
Our team is made up of former practitioners and nationally recognized academic lawyers, committed to helping our students make their career aspirations a reality.
