The four-year undergraduate LLB is a career-focused programme that is now the standard national qualification for entrance to all branches of the legal profession. The programme is designed to ensure that graduates acquire both the legal knowledge and the skills to apply the law in practice. The Legal Skills and Practice courses provide students with some basic practical skills and an introduction to the legal work environment. In the fourth year, students may choose from a number of elective courses, allowing them to develop additional knowledge in areas such as environmental law, tax law, competition law, international humanitarian law and Moot Court. Practical experience: The faculty’s Law Clinic provides senior students with the opportunity to gain valuable practical experience by offering free legal services to members of the community. The faculty is also home to the Eastern Cape Street Law project, where students become involved in educating the public about their legal rights and responsibilities.
