Destinations of UK Law
First Degree Graduates 2007 - 08

Every year our graduating students (from the UK and the EU) are surveyed six months after they leave as part of the national survey ‘Destinations of Leavers from Higher Education’. These data are used to give a snapshot of what they are doing, whether work, looking for work, further study or maybe taking time out to travel. Remember, when looking at this information, that it is collected very soon after qualification and may not reflect the eventual choice of career of the graduate.

Degrees covered: Law and Human Rights; LLB Law; LLB Laws (International Exchange); LLB English and French Law (Maitrise); LLB Law and Politics; LLB Law and Human Rights; LLB Law and Philosophy.

Number of Home & EU graduates responding to the survey: 126 (72% of Law graduates surveyed)
