What is Law?
There are two Law courses at Oxford: Course I is a three-year course and Course II is a four-year course which follows the same syllabus, with the extra year being spent abroad following a prescribed course at a university within the European Union.
Law at Oxford
The Oxford syllabus comprises topics chosen primarily for their intellectual interest, rather than for the frequency with which they arise in practice. But at the same time, the skills of researching, thinking and presentation developed by the Oxford courses are eminently suited to practical application, and employers recognise this.
Careers
There is no assumption that our law graduates ought to pursue a legal career. However, both the Oxford law courses give exemption from the first part of legal training in England and Wales. Around 75% of Oxford law graduates go on to the legal profession.
