International mobility and flexibility are now key graduate features (FIND A SOURCE). At Brunel we understand this, and are set up to offer our graduates an outstanding Common Law Degree taught by both common law experts alongside international academics who have made a name for themselves in England and internationally. So you get the best of both worlds.
This experience we pass on to you DIRECTLY in the classroom and out.
Memorise the faces and see if you can spot some of them during the course of the day and this afternoon at coffee – You will be looking for the following people: By day, He teaches criminal law and is a dedicated head of undergraduate studies at Brunel and deputy Head of School. But he is also one of Europe’s leading authorities on comparative criminal law with a PhD from the Sorbonne in France – captain of the staff football that gets regularly beaten by the students (but they are still trying)!!!! NB: But in the winning staff team that won the basketball game against the students! DIMITRIOS GIANNOULOPOULOS By day module convenor for English Legal System and Methods, senior tutor but in her spare time she is also the leading UK authority on criminology and car crime and Member of the Metropolitan Police’s Strategic Traffic Consultative Forum. CLAIRE CORBETT She is teaching Land law and European Union law and is a convenor of the Dissertation module in Year 3, but in her spare time, she is a brilliant tango dancer, an active member of the Brunel Reading Group and a Research advisor to the Refugee Council. Yes I forgot to mention that she has made quite a name for herself internationally on refugee rights. NADINE EL-ENANY Admissions tutor by day, teaching ELIM and Consumer law during the week. When she is not teaching she enjoys joining the students for a law film event or act as a legal consultant for eBay. Sometimes she even shares a stage with key English policy makers from the Government Department for Trade and Industry or from the European Union on questions concerning Electronic commerce and the protection of consumers. And that expertise is passed directly onto the student she teaches in Year 3 on consumer law... All those people and many more will contribute to your legal education at Brunel.
Whatever course of study you choose, you will have 3 levels of study to go through
All of them are going to involve a lot of reading, but thinks of it as if you’re reading a long text message and the 3 years should go flying by.
During the course of those two levels, you will gain the knowledge and transferable skills needed to rock situations like this and feel completely capable to handle cases as a lawyer or in other related activities.
Your opportunity to work more closely with an expert from our staff and get one to one supervision. An opportunity also to shape your future legal career by showing employers your range of talents and starting to specialise in an area of law. You can pick from options in commercial law, human rights, international law. Whatever future career plans you have we can recommend options that will make your CV stand out.
6th is an amazing result as all other 5 are only beaten by Cambridge and Oxford in the law school rankings. There are also many law school in London and competition is very stiff.
