Law with History at University of Essex - UCAS

Course summary

We teach the law that matters. We are ‘freer, more daring and more experimental’ than a traditional law school, so your legal education is relevant and responsive to the needs of a changing society. Our approach is global in outlook, based on justice, and engaged with real-world problems. LLB Law with History will give you a thorough training in the complementary disciplines of law and history, by developing critical, reflective, creative and analytical skills. In addition to emphasising aspects common to both subjects, you explore the differences between them, and the approaches taken within law and historical thought. You will also develop a critical awareness of the nature of law within its historical contexts. You will cover key topics from both Law and History, with the opportunity to choose from a wide range of optional modules too:

  • The American Revolution
  • The role of women in Early Modern England
  • Copyright and trademark law
  • International environmental law
  • The use of evidence
  • Human rights
The School of Law specialises in commercial law, public law, and human rights law. We are ranked 51st in the Times Higher Education World University Rankings 2021, which is 13th in the UK, and we are top 20 in the UK for research excellence (REF 2014, mainstream universities, THE 2014).Department of History has developed a strong research and teaching profile, with the majority of our research rated as ‘world-leading’ or ‘internationally excellent’ (REF 2014). We also have strong links with the Essex Record Office, which is one of the best county record offices in the UK. Our students love us too – 92% of our History students expressed overall satisfaction with their course (NSS 2020).
