Teaching and resources
Our lecturers are specialists in their own fields and include lawyers, economists, environmentalists, and experts in business, finance and quantitative methods. Many are involved in research projects of national and international concern.
We have dedicated lecture and seminar rooms equipped for both traditional and interactive lectures, and a comprehensive library. There's an extensive range of computing facilities, including an intranet store of much teaching, careers and other useful information.
Professional training
This degree differs from similar courses elsewhere because it's not wholly vocational - there's an emphasis on high intellectual and academic content, which appeals greatly to employers.
However, the degree is accredited by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) and allows graduates to progress directly to the Assessment of Professional Competence to become a full member of the RICS. It also gives partial exemption from the academic requirements of the Bar Council and Law Society.
Exceptional employment prospects
The Department has one of the strongest records for graduate employment across the University - a reflection of its strong applied base and emphasis on the development of critical employment skills.
Our graduates go on to become lawyers, economists, civil servants or to work for national and international agencies. Many go into financial, business or management careers, and others enter public service with local or national organisations or proceed to further education and research.
