2-Semester Pathway - International Foundation Year - Business, Film and Media- Transfer to Bachelor of Law (Honours) - Law with International Relations

Program Description This program consists of a pathway program offered by StudyGroup at the International Study Centre at the University of Sussex followed by entry into a university program offered at the University of Sussex. In your International Foundation Year, you will study courses related to your intended field of study alongside English to develop and enhance your skills as a student. Advancement into your intended program depends upon the successful completion of the pathway program.

The International Foundation Year in Business, Media and Social Sciences will familiarize you with a wide area of study for your intended degree. You will develop your critical thinking skills, creativity, analytical and team working skills, providing you with the most crucial skills required as a successful graduate.

On this course, you’ll study:

• the political and economic principles that govern the relations between states • agreements (or treaties) between states • the extent to which states can and do rely on such principles and treaties (considered by legal scholars as sources of public international law).

You’re taught by research-active faculty and study theoretical and practical aspects of law. Through the Sussex Law Clinics, you can gain valuable work experience of the law in action before you graduate. We also have links with leading law firms that sponsor our student competitions in national and international mooting, criminal advocacy, client interviewing, negotiation, mediation and legal debating. Our supportive alumni are also happy to provide career advice for current students.

Successful completion of any of our law courses will provide you with a qualifying law degree.
