Location of University of Portsmouth
Portsmouth University is unique in that it provides an ILEX Level 6 Master´s unit on this programme. Graduates with a Law degree who take this unit have the opportunity to become a member of the Institute of Legal Executives (ILEX), the governing membership body for Legal Executives and trainee Legal Executives. Being a member of the ILEX will be a valuable asset in helping you develop your legal career.
The course will be of interest not only to recent graduates but also to those who obtained their degrees some time ago and are qualified or are working in a legal environment by allowing for flexible attendance through various project and work-based units.
The degree has been designed to promote flexibility and choice. Students can choose to focus on particular areas of academic interest or develop a wider range of skills and knowledge (for example through involvement in the School´s clinical legal education projects). The programme also allows for flexible attendance through various project and work-based units.
The course can be studied full-time over 14 months or part-time over 26 months.
