LLB (Hons) at BIC, the most promising law qualification in Pakistan

The life of a lawyer is nothing short of exciting. Sure, legal dramas like Boston Legal and Suits might sometimes accurately portray how a big-shot lawyer goes about their day, but it's still nothing compared to what an LLB Hons from a prestigious institution will get you in terms of excitement, career-satisfaction, and most importantly, an avenue where you can use your sharp and analytical skills to ensure that the law remains as much a weapon for the wrongdoers as it remains a saviour for those who are challenged. One such institution of higher learning in the legal fraternity that commands respect and admiration from peers is the exclusive Liverpool John Moores University in the UK, and we'll walk you through how you can earn an LJMU-accredited degree in Pakistan with Beaconhouse International College.

Let us understand first what entails in the LLB Hons degree programme, and what you can expect to achieve with it.

LLB Hons: what it entails

With Beaconhouse International Colleges, you can earn an LLB Hons from the prestigious LJMU, which aims to provide students and aspirants with an opportunity to see the law in action as soon as the programme starts. To this end, LJMU engages its Legal Advice Center that helps students get an idea of how the legal fraternity works. However, that's not all: an LLB Hons degree from LJMU, offered by Beaconhouse International College, will also put your interpersonal skills through the motions; everything including teamwork, communication, time management and your literary and oratory skills will be polished and honed to fit the requirements of an LJMU-educated legal professional.

What's more, the programme will also allow students to access the campus' active student law society, which also provides a forum for students to further accentuate their personal skills, and get a real-life experience in dealing en masse the challenges they will face as their career progresses.
