The small-group teaching format and one-on-one attention from a personal academic advisor are embedded into the learning experience to help you get more out of your studies. You’ll also benefit from one-to-one support and self-directed learning to develop your critical thinking skills.\nAs you progress through the course there’s an increased focus on self-directed learning and independent research, particularly around the dissertation, as you begin to prepare for professional or postgraduate life.\nSpecialist facilities in the Law School include an interactive Harvard-style lecture theatre and academic workrooms. The moot court and pro bono room give you the space to develop your skills in a simulated legal environment.\n\nAssessment\n\nWe use an array of assessment methods including essays, oral presentations and written examinations completed throughout the year. Throughout their studies students will also have the opportunity for formative assessments in order to scaffold their learning.\nYou will also complete a 12,000-word dissertation, which makes up one-third of your final-year marks.",
