Essex Law School Magazine

First launched in July 2024, the magazine was created to celebrate the dynamic work of our students, staff, and alumni, and to offer a window into the life of Essex Law School. From experiential learning in the Essex Law Clinic to global research partnerships and new programme launches, the inaugural issue set the tone for a publication that reflects our commitment to excellence, innovation, and inclusivity.

Now in its second edition (July 2025), the magazine continues to highlight the breadth and depth of our work. Whether you are a prospective student, a current member of our School, or one of our valued alumni, we invite you to explore the magazine and discover how Essex Law School continues to shape legal education and practice in the UK and beyond.
