Bachelor of Laws Evening Degree Programme
…...“…… I came to the UL School of Law as a mature student, with an established career in
business and finance. I found the LLB Evening programme to be a really excellent
experience covering a wide spectrum of legal areas from Criminal and Constitution-
al Law, to Commercial, Contract, Tort and European Law.
Without exception, each and every module covered proved to be engaging, absorb-
ing and stimulating. Students are afforded the opportunity to explore a wide range
of legal issues with lecturers who are acknowledged experts and published authors
in their respective fields. The schedules and materials are ideally suited particularly
for those with a busy work schedule.
I have benefitted greatly from taking the evening LLB Law degree at UL Law
School. It has enhanced my own business skills and also served as an excellent
foundation for the LLM masters degree programme.
