This four-year course will give you an English LLB degree with a specialism in Chinese law, a distinctive area that makes you highly employable. You don't need to speak or have studied Mandarin before you start: you'll learn this in your first year.
We'll teach you about Chinese law, culture and business. You'll learn how to advise clients, resolve disputes and conduct legal transactions.
You'll spend your third year abroad studying in English at the law faculty of a top law school in China. Returning to Sheffield for your final year, you choose from a wide range of optional modules to complete your studies.
The Core Legal and Study Skills module includes an introduction to mooting, employability workshops and study skills sessions.
When you graduate you'll have the skills required by global law firms with clients and bases in China.
