Law is one of the great pillars of human society, supporting our rights, our processes, systems and organisations, and our civilisation. Mastering the tenets of law and getting to grips with its different disciplines can set you up for any number of career opportunities across a breadth of industries and sectors, all over the world.

At LSE Summer School, we offer a range of world-class courses in Law for students interested in pursuing professional openings in law, politics, government, business, media, administration or research, here in the UK and abroad.
