Its strong focus on English Law supports pathways to qualify as a Solicitor via the SQE for work in international firms at the DIFC, or to register as Legal Consultant with the Dubai Legal Affairs Department, subject to meeting their requirements.

Programme delivery: 

Students learn from globally recognised experts through a dynamic mix of lectures, seminars, workshops, and independent study.
