School of Law at The University of Edinburgh

At Edinburgh Law School, you'll enjoy access to superb resources and facilities, and an educational experience designed to unlock your full potential.

Class sizes for on-campus programmes are taught with a maximum of 25 students, and delivered by experts in their field of knowledge.

You will have access to one of the largest collections of legal documents in the UK in our Law Library and we provide an excellent array of computing and study facilities for all of our students.

Community and support

Our postgraduate community is very active, with many reading groups, seminars, events and societies for you to participate in. You will also receive a personal tutor on registration, who will help guide you through your studies.

Edinburgh Student Law Review

The Edinburgh Student Law Review is the first of its kind in Scotland. Managed and written entirely by the Schools student body, it aims to provide a forum for law students to engage in a more analytical approach to the study of law.

Students from all levels and legal disciplines are encouraged to submit articles, case notes and updates, which are published in the Review each year.

Funding

We understand that postgraduate study can be a significant financial commitment. We therefore have a range of scholarships and bursaries that can make the difference and ease the financial burden.
