Master of Science in Environmental Engineering

at University of Strathclyde United Kingdom

The Law School at Strathclyde is one of Scotland’s leading providers of legal education. 

Studying law concerns the obligations, duties and rights of every member of society in relation to their neighbours and to society.

Our expertise extends beyond the traditional core subjects essential for entry to the legal profession into construction law, criminology, human rights law, information technology and telecommunications law, mediation studies and international economic law.

We are home to Scotland’s biggest student-run Law Clinic, which offers a unique, real-world, learning environment, and to Ardcalloch, a virtual community where the legal issues of everyday life are played out.

All of our LLB graduates satisfy the professional requirements of the Law Society of Scotland and the Faculty of Advocates. This means you can continue to the post-degree stages of professional training required to become a practising lawyer in Scotland.
