PhD in Law

Among our community we have leading authors and experts in their respective subjects. We work with a wide variety of groups including the legal profession, policymakers in government and the EU and other research bodies and organisations around the world. This reflects our strengths in many fields of legal and socio-legal research and these close links give our students the opportunity to study with internationally-respected scholars. We engage in several nationally and internationally-funded research projects and our success in drawing in such funding is increasing year on year.
