Pre-University Law (Session 1)

King’s Pre-University summer courses offer participants an in-depth exploration of the chosen subject area(s) at degree level and give students experience of university-level study. King’s courses provide insight into the key debates, themes and cutting-edge research areas of each of the subjects. Students will enjoy research-enriched teaching through seminars, lectures, workshops and experiential learning activities. Students will need to successfully complete the assignments of each module and meet attendance requirements in order to receive a Certificate of Completion.

This course introduces the foundations of English and international law while examining key challenges within these disciplines. It is designed to provide students with a strong grounding in core areas of law and to offer insight into studying the subject at university level. Benefiting from our central location beside the Royal Courts of Justice and the Inns of Court, students will also have the opportunity to take part in a range of activities and excursions that enrich their understanding of both the study of law and its professional practice.

By the end of the module, you should have:

• experienced a variety of learning activities typical of a first-year undergraduate degree in Law

• built on your existing knowledge of core topics covered in a first-year undergraduate degree in Law

• carried out independent research on a given topic and produced a structured and well supported response to an assignment brief

• worked collaboratively in diverse groups to produce a presentation
