Law and Social Policy, LLB (Hons)

Our joint programmes enable students to pursue law in conjunction with another discipline, such as social policy, over a four-year period. This involves taking courses from both the Law School and the School of Social and Political Science.Social policy examines the distribution of welfare and wellbeing in societies and the policies affecting it. The LLB Law and Social Policy programme fosters in-depth knowledge of legal theory, concepts, and rules, while exploring how political debates and policy decisions can mitigate social change impacts. It addresses current issues across Scottish, UK, European, and international contexts.
