I’d heard about the unique way Salford Law at Salford Business School delivers its law courses, with a focus on real-world business acumen alongside the legal aspects of a qualifying law degree. The University of Salford provides opportunities to facilitate your development as a prospective lawyer and the international opportunities are fantastic and really give you the edge over other candidates when looking for employment.

Course Details
Throughout the programme, Law with Management combines the required modules for an accredited qualifying law degree with a number of more business-focused topics. In the first year of the syllabus, you will develop an indepth knowledge of the concepts that underpin law and management as areas of academic study.
As the course progresses, more advanced skills and theories will be introduced, improving your skillset and academic knowledge. On completion of your second year of study, you may choose to undertake a paid work placement or study abroad for a year. Embarking on a professional placement is an invaluable opportunity to put your studies into practice, enhance your CV and earn a wage for the work you do.
