Why study law in the UK?

Now one third of the world’s population live in common law jurisdictions or in systems mixed with civil law. For those with an interest in international law, English commercial law is often the governing law in international contracts.
Internationally applicable knowledge – as a member of the European Union, the UK operates a consolidation of UK and EU law. As a result, UK universities are able to offer outstanding courses in European law – one of the many reasons international students choose to study European Law here in the UK.
