Degree Overview

  • Law is taken jointly with Criminology for the three years of this degree which is accredited by the Honorable Society of King's Inns. We are one of the few universities in Ireland to offer the option of studying law with criminology as part of an accredited law degree. Faculty include leading international experts in the field with research interests in policing, restorative justice, gender, ethnicity, human trafficking, terrorism and mental health.
  • This is a unique interdisciplinary programme offering perspectives from sociology, psychology and anthropology, as well as law.
  • Students acquire a thorough grounding in the fundamental areas of legal study: including foundational legal principles; legal systems; and the role of Irish, European, and international law.
  • Through studying Criminology, students examine the causes of crime and society's reaction to criminality.
  • The BCL is a three-year degree in law combined with one other subject. While the BCL covers all the core modules of law, you cover less law than on the LLB (MH501), giving you more time to develop expertise in another subject. The main advantage is that it allows you to combine the study of law with the study of another discipline.
