Excellence in research

Though committed to teaching, Buckingham Law School is not a teaching factory. Our academics nourish their teaching with cutting edge research.

Excellence in professional development

We have a dedicated Clinical Legal Education Manager, who is also a qualified solicitor to help guide you through the schemes available.
