EU law
[EU law is a required course by the professional bodies in England and Wales for the LLB as a Qualifying Law Degree.]
The European Union (EU) is a relatively new legal system that combines characteristics of international
law and national legal systems. EU institutions and law-making powers are examined as well as the
key questions of the impact of EU law on national law and its overall
consequences for a) business enterprises and b) individuals. As EU law is highly responsive to
economic and social changes, legal rules and judicial decisions are studied in their wider context.
The subject will appeal to students who enjoyed studying Public law or who have an interest in
public affairs, politics, economics or international relations.
