Graduate with experience

At the University of Bedfordshire, we understand that employers value Law graduates who possess practical skills. This is why we offer a range of exciting co-curricular activities which allow our students to develop these practical skills.

• We have invested in the creation of a Moot Court which will give you the opportunity to practise the full range of advocacy skills required for your future career in the legal profession. Through our mooting programme, you can participate in mooting competitions as well as other advocacy exercises such as mock trials.
• Our award-winning Refugee Legal Assistance Project and Family Law Clinic provide free legal support to some of the most vulnerable individuals in society while giving our student volunteers the opportunity to practice their interviewing, drafting and case-management skills, alongside all-important client-care skills.

• The newly established Family Law Project allows students to regularly attend court, offering both practical and emotional support to self-represented litigants. By assisting litigants in understanding the court process and boosting their confidence to represent themselves, students will empower them in various ways.

• Our close links with our local legal and business communities mean you benefit from a range of placement and work experience opportunities. We work closely with the University’s Careers & Employability Service to ensure our careers programme is tailored to your needs and ambitions.
