About Law and Criminology, LLB - at University of Sheffield

This three-year course covers the foundational legal subjects and combines them with a thorough study of the principles of criminology.

Gain a critical understanding of the Common Law of England and Wales in combination with a thorough study of the principles of criminology.

During your first two years at Sheffield, you’ll gain a strong grounding in the key areas of law and criminology, through the study of the foundations of legal knowledge subjects and an introduction to criminological theory and research. These include criminal justice, explanations of crime and punishment and other responses to the phenomenon of crime.

In your final year, you can tailor your degree around your passions and career aspirations - choosing from criminology and law modules like criminal evidence, restorative justice or policing in a global context.

The flexibility of this degree means by your final year, you can choose to specialise more in either law or criminology topics, or you can choose a range of both.

With law at Sheffield, you have the option to study your third year abroad in one of our many partner universities, for an insight into another legal system. And you can gain real-world experience right here, with Sheffield’s pro bono schemes.

Whatever way you customise this degree, you’ll ultimately graduate with the knowledge and skills you need to start a successful career.
