About Business Law LLB (hons) in De Montfort University

The Business Law LLB at DMU allows you to focus on all aspects of business and commercial law. You can specialise in areas including international trade law, competition law and company law, giving you the breadth of knowledge you need to start your career as a business legal professional. 

In the first year you will study four core modules to give you a strong foundation in law. In years two and three you are free to select the modules that reflect your own interests and career aims, although certain modules are compulsory if you want to achieve qualifying status. 

In addition, to ensure students graduate with the key skills to succeed in the marketplace we now offer a module called ‘The Lawyer in the Marketplace’ which will develop your commercial awareness and entrepreneurial skills by understanding the many skills that a lawyer in the marketplace can add to any commercial or socially enterprising organisation. You will also benefit from networking opportunities for law students, with the Law School's professional links.
