Faculty of Law, University of Oxford

Along with its counterpart at Cambridge, it is unique in its use of personalised tutorials, in which students are taught by faculty fellows in groups of one to three on a weekly basis,[1] as the main form of instruction in its undergraduate and graduate courses.

[6][7] In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, there were prominent professors in Oxford such as Frederick Pollock, William Anson, and Albert Dicey.

[tone] The Oxford law school flourished through the operation of the resulting internal market, and through the brilliance of particular leading scholars such as H. L. A. Hart, Rupert Cross, Tony Honoré, John Morris, Peter Carter, and others.

[8] In the twentieth century, the BCL became a master's level degree; and, by the 1970s, Oxford developed a large graduate programme in law.

The BA in Jurisprudence is Oxford's regular three-year undergraduate law degree, equivalent to what in some universities would be called an LLB.

Oxford is renowned for the size, strength, and diversity of its community of legal scholars who are drawn from around the world, and students benefit from the opportunities they are given to discuss their work with leading academics in the field.

This rich history has helped to maintain its status as the most highly regarded taught masters-level qualification in the common law world.

Since 1991, the Magister Juris (MJur) degree has established a similar outstanding reputation for students from non-common law backgrounds.

Oxford MLF candidates arrive having graduated at or near the top of their undergraduate class, often combined with several years of professional experience.

Research students play a central role in the intellectual life of the faculty, collaborating in numerous discussion groups and seminars.

[21] The Law Faculty offices, together with the English Faculty, are situated in the St Cross Building, which is a Grade II* listed building completed in 1964 and designed by Sir John Leslie Martin (architect of the Royal Festival Hall in London) and Colin St John Wilson (architect of the New British Library).
