Degree Overview

Your Law degree is built with your future in mind. So you won’t just study law – you’ll learn how to use it, question it, and apply it in real situations.

Our Law course blends a strong academic foundation with practical experience from the very start. Whether you’re presenting in our moot courtroom, interviewing clients, or developing your voice in a legal debate, every part of your degree is designed to get you career ready. That way, you move beyond theoretical exercises to explore skills you’ll use long after graduation.

Law at Winchester doesn’t happen in a bubble. Our city is steeped in legal history – from the Magna Carta connections to the influential legal figures who’ve shaped national law – and alive with legal practice, from the annual Law Sunday procession at Winchester Cathedral to the high-profile Crown Court, a five-minute walk from campus. Many of our students spend afternoons in the public gallery, watching real cases unfold – bringing their studies to life in a way textbooks simply can’t. And when it comes to connecting to the wider world of law, you’ll find London’s legal hub just an hour away by train.

Close contact with academics mean your lecturers know who you are and how to help you grow. And because we regularly update our curriculum to reflect changes in law and society, what you learn will always be relevant, current, and connected to the industry around you.
