welcome to HONG KONG
Study in the vibrant city of Hong Kong, where we launched our first international campus in 2019, an outstanding opportunity to bring our quality legal and business training to this exciting region. We welcome students not just from Hong Kong but from across the world.
About Hong Kong
Hong Kong is a world hub for commerce and finance with over 900 law firms, making it an ideal location to study and launch a career in law. In an increasingly global economy we take pride in maintaining an international outlook. We have built strong links with law schools and professional bodies throughout the world. We will be working closely with these local law firms and businesses to ensure that our courses are designed with students’ employability in mind.
Our tutors bring invaluable real-life experience into the classroom, helping our students stand out in the job market. We have nurtured many relationships in the region providing our students with links to mentors, alumni, work experience, internships, pro bono work and opportunities to further their legal or business studies. It is this excellence in teaching and support that we are excited to bring to Hong Kong.
Courses available at our Hong Kong campus
Students are able to choose from a portfolio of undergraduate, postgraduate courses as well as examination preparatory courses, aimed at law, non-law and business students or graduates.
Upon completion of our courses, students are eligible to progress onto further studies to become lawyers in Hong Kong, England and Wales, or to enhance their career in a variety of industries, not only legal or business.
