Welcome to the web site of the Law Department at Brunel University. Law has been taught in the Faculty of Social Sciences since the opening of the University in 1966.
Great importance is attached to the quality of both teaching and research.
The department has 19 members of Academic Staff and a number of research students, some of whom also act as teaching assistants. The Department is housed in an attractive modern red brick building on the Uxbridge Campus together with all the other Social Science Departments. The Department of Law has a current undergraduate population of approximately 500. The four-year degree programmes for the LL.B. Law and LL.B Business and Finance Law incorporate two periods of clinical legal education of approximately 22 weeks' duration in selected placements. The second placement may count towards the period of professional training required by The Law Society for solicitors provided that certain conditions are met.
