Bachelor of Laws (Honours) - Law and Spanish (MR14)

The programs allow students to study law alongside another named academic discipline. Over four years of study they will take a range of courses from both the Law School and the School with which their program is combined - in this case, the School of Literatures, Languages and Cultures. Studying a joint degree at Edinburgh provides students with wide-ranging academic foundations and a broader qualification to apply for postgraduate degrees or employment.

Spanish is the official language in 20 countries and is widely spoken in four more territories, including the United States. The joint Bachelor of Laws in Law and Spanish aims to promote advanced knowledge and understanding of the theory, concepts and rules of law, as well as the opportunity to gain a professional standard of Spanish.

In addition to intensive language training, students will explore literature, film, poetry and theatre from around the world in its historical context. They will learn how to discern different varieties and registers of Spanish, and gain crucial intercultural competencies.
