Course Overview

Graduating with an LLB from the University of Bedfordshire is the first step on your journey towards becoming a solicitor or a barrister as well as a range of other professional opportunities. This LLB is for you if you have a particular interest in exploring the intersection between the law, psychology and human behaviour.

These units provide you with a greater understanding of human behaviour alongside your law studies.
