The College of Law is to enhance its existing Legal Practice Course

The College of Law is to enhance its existing Legal Practice Course (LPC) with a new LL.M LPC from 2013, which will award students not only with an LPC qualification but also with an internationally-recognised Master of Laws.

The new qualification is exclusive to the College and will be the same price and duration as its current LPC.
