There are important connections between business and the law, in particular in property rights and contracting, and business practices. The joint Bachelor in Law and Business (LLB) at The University of Edinburgh aims to promote advanced knowledge and understanding of the theory, concepts and rules of Law, and exploration of the global dynamic climate of contemporary business and management.
This LLB program is accredited by the Law Society of Scotland. However, as a combined honours program, it does not include all courses required to proceed to the Diploma in Professional Legal Practice and thereafter to the legal profession in Scotland. It may be possible, in discussion with the Law School, for joint honours students to meet these requirements by studying additional courses.
