About Us
Durham Law School's academic staff are leading academics and practitioners from across the world who deliver an intellectually stimulating legal education in a diverse and supportive environment.
Teaching is informed by our latest cutting-edge research that does more than simply explain the law, it also helps students understand how to shape it.
Beginning in the first few weeks of their studies, students are required to attend small group tutorials and seminars. We inspire our students to succeed wherever their future careers might take them.
