Law in Exeter

All teaching staff engage in original research and we try to expose students to the results of this research whenever possible. The School constantly strives to create an ethos of scholarship in teaching law with a student community that is truly international – we have substantial numbers of students from the Middle East and the Gulf, South East and East Asia, and a large proportion from Africa and Europe. Research strengths in international and European law have led to the development of innovative new taught degrees and the School was a founding member of the European Law Faculties’ Association (ELFA). The prestigious series of Hamlyn lectures have been held at the University and the annual Bracton and Lasok lectures attract eminent speakers, including EU commissioners, judges and MPs.

We are located in the Amory Building on the University’s Streatham Campus where students benefit from a substantial Law Library spanning two floors with 400 reader places, together with a European Documentation Centre. You will also have access to extensive online services including all official European databases and there is a purpose-built, recently-refurbished Moot Room, equipped with the latest audio-visual facilities and seating for 250 people.
