A law degree is highly valued in many sectors, such as business (including Human Resources, Tax, and Insurance), charity, management, administration, Civil Service, education, and government. Graduates of this program have a diverse range of career options, including becoming a Solicitor, Barrister, Legal Executive, Paralegal, or working in community advisory roles.

Many students undertake this program to gain professional qualifications, such as the Solicitors Qualifying Exam for solicitors (introduced in autumn 2021), and the Bar Practice Course/Barrister Training Course for barristers. The LLB program meets the academic requirements of the Bar Standards Board, covering the seven Foundations of Legal Knowledge necessary for bar training.

Although not mandatory for the Solicitors Qualifying Exam, the LLB degree also provides a strong foundation for it. Many graduates also choose to pursue master's degrees before taking the professional exams.
