It is a vibrant, forward-thinking institution with a reputation for high-achieving students, academics and researchers – it’s the perfect place to embark on a Masters degree (LLM or MSc).
In August 2007, Strathclyde Law School was ranked 10th out of 85 in the UK in The Times Good University Guide, and 12th out of 85 in The Good University Guide. It was rated Highly Satisfactory in the last Teaching, Quality Assessment Exercise carried out by the Scottish Higher Education Funding Council and rated 5 (top) in the most recent Research Assessment Exercise. These very positive rankings are a tribute to the efforts of its staff and the quality and achievements of its students, re-affirming the Law School's standing within the top flight of UK Law Schools.
And, as you decide where to embark on your postgraduate qualification in January or September, there are a few other things you might like to know about Strathclyde.
