University of Law

The College of Law has been granted university title, and will be known as the University of Law.

It has held degree-awarding powers since 2006, and trains more than 7,000 students each year on eight campuses as well as offering online courses.

Professor Nigel Savage, chief executive, says: “Our students gain world-class, transferable skills, knowledge and qualifications that enhance their CVs and increase their attractiveness to future employers. Having a university title will give further credibility to that.”
