List of Qualifying Law Degrees & Qualifying

Updated: June 2015

LIST OF QUALIFYING LAW DEGREES & QUALIFYING FOUNDATION DEGREES/HNDs

This statement, and the list of degrees which follows it, is issued by the Bar Standards Board in respect of degree courses commencing on or after 1 September 2001. This list should be considered together with this statement.

The Bar Standards Board recognises the law degrees listed below as “Qualifying Law Degrees”, i.e., law degrees which meet the requirements for completing the Academic Stage of training for intending Barristers, provided that the degrees have been awarded on the basis of the student having passed within the degree course the examinations and assessments for the foundations of legal knowledge set out in schedule two of the Joint Statement 1999. These subjects are; Public Law (including Constitutional Law, Administrative Law and Human Rights), Law of the European Union, Criminal Law, Obligations (including Contract, Restitution and Tort), Knowledge of the English Legal System, Property Law and Equity & the Law of Trusts. Students will also be expected to have appropriate expertise in Legal Research.

The award of a law degree which complies with the above requirements entitles the student to proceed to the Vocational Stage of training for The Bar of England and Wales (i.e the BPTC), subject to the regulations then in force and providing at least a II (ii) honours degree has been obtained.

In some of the degrees listed, the foundations of legal knowledge are not compulsory within the course of study. Students should be aware that failure to take all of the foundations of legal knowledge within their degree studies and/or additional legal subjects in order to have completed 240 credits in legal subjects, will result in a delay of at least 12 months in commencing the Vocational Stage of training for the Bar. This is in order to allow time to prepare for and then take and pass the outstanding subjects in the Common Professional Examination or an approved Graduate Diploma in Law course. Students in this position must apply for and obtain a Certificate of Partial Exemption from the Academic Stage of training from the Bar Standards Board before commencing either the Common Professional Examination or an approved Graduate Diploma in Law course for completion of the Academic Stage of training for the Bar.

Students who plan to complete their degree studies by distance learning should be aware that it is the policy of the Bar Standards Board that distance learning courses are normally deemed to be part-time courses.

The Bar Professional Training Course (BPTC) must be commenced within five years of completion of a Qualifying Law Degree. Updated: June 2015

LLB UPGRADES/TOP UPS

The LLB upgrades/top ups to the Graduate Diploma in Law programmes offered by some institutions are not recognised by the BSB as Qualifying Law Degrees as commonly understood, or as set out in the Joint Statement on Qualifying Law Degrees; however, this does not affect the status of the Graduate Diploma in Law which, if successfully completed, will satisfy the regulatory bodies’ requirements of the Academic Stage of training. Please contact the institution(s) concerned if you have any queries about these awards.

AWARD OF LLB AFTER COMPLETION OF THE GRADUATE DIPLOMA IN LAW AND THE BAR PROFESSIONAL TRAINING COURSE

A number of institutions award an LLB to students who have successfully completed their Graduate Diploma in Law together with the Bar Professional Training Course. These awards are not recognised by the BSB as Qualifying Law Degrees as commonly understood, or as set out in the Joint Statement on Qualifying Law Degrees; however, this does not affect the status of the Graduate Diploma in Law which, if successfully completed, will satisfy the regulatory bodies’ requirements of the Academic Stage of training, or the status of the Bar Professional Training Course, which, if successfully completed, will satisfy, in part, the BSB's requirements of the Vocational Stage of training. Please contact the provider concerned for more details about these awards

Further information on the Academic Stage of training for the Bar may be obtained from the current Academic Stage Book, available on application to the Bar Standards Board or on our website at www.barstandardsboard.org.uk
