Bachelor of Law (Hons) in Law with Cymraeg (Welsh) (Optional Placement Year)

Program Overview

At Bangor University, we bring the study of law to life. Take part in mock trials, internal moots in English and Welsh, visit law firms, judicial institutions, and government institutions. You'll also have the chance to hear from practising lawyers, legal experts, and specialist law firms. Extra-curricular activities from our active student-run Law Society include the popular ‘LawSoc balls’ and trips to law fairs.

On this Law degree, you’ll gain the legal and language skills required in a bilingual legal profession. Since devolution in 1998, there has been a growing demand for bilingual lawyers and those with legal knowledge – in both the public and private arenas. Not just to aid treatment of victims and defendants in court, but also help Welsh citizens understand their legal rights and obligations.

As Wales continues to develop its own distinct legal personality, all primary and secondary legislation produced by the Senedd must be published in both English and Welsh. This requires legal experts to help with bilingual drafting of legislation, who can read and understand both versions of the text. Clients also need lawyers who can advise and advocate for them in the language they feel most comfortable in.

You will graduate with a Law degree which meets the academic requirements for qualification as a barrister (Bar Standards Board compliant), but also provides essential knowledge for students aspiring to be solicitors. Amongst an attractive array of modules, you can choose vocational subjects tested in the Solicitors’ Qualifying Examinations (SQE) - such as Business Law, Wills and Estates, and Property Practice - providing you with a gateway to professional training to become a solicitor.

A degree in law also develops lots of practical competencies: research skills, an analytical mind, the ability to listen, form sound arguments, read and quickly process complex information. The combination of legal and linguistic skills would be beneficial for a variety of non-legal careers, such as government or local authority, non-governmental organisations and policy work.

Careers
With a growing demand for bilingual graduates, a Bangor Law degree opens up exciting career paths in law and in many other rewarding areas where you can make a difference to people's lives as well as to Welsh society.

Throughout your studies you’ll acquire the academic knowledge and be introduced to the skills needed to pursue a legal career should you wish to go on to qualify as a solicitor or barrister. You may wish to work in the public sector as a Welsh Government lawyer or with a local authority. Or in the private sector specialising in commercial law, immigration law or criminal law. This degree is recognised by the Bar Council of India.

If you don’t want to practise as a solicitor or barrister, you may still wish to work in an area where your legal training would be advantageous and where you can work to make a positive difference. Many statutory bodies such as the Welsh Language Commissioner and the Older People’s Commissioner for Wales and the Children’s Commissioner for Wales require people with legal backgrounds to work as policy officers, campaigners and advice workers. International organisations, such as the United Nations offer tremendous opportunities to those who are looking for an international career.
