This programme offers you the opportunity to study at Newcastle Law School. This is one of the oldest established law schools in the country. We provide a stimulating international academic environment that brings together staff and students from a variety of backgrounds.

The School is part of the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences (HASS). All postgraduate research (PGR) students are members of the HASS Graduate School. The Graduate School organises a comprehensive training programme for postgraduate students. The programme covers research techniques and essential professional skills. It also provides support for personal development.
