Contrary to the common belief, studying Law does not ONLY lead to a career in the Legal Profession (Barrister, Attorney, Notary).
Prospective students should also realise that there are a whole range of careers in Law outside of private legal practice. Such careers include working in some public or private sector departments where a legal background is essential or useful as well as specialist niche areas of Law. More importantly,a Law degree is one of the most well respected undergraduate qualifications. It opens up a whole range of career opportunities quite apart from the practice of the Law. This is because the study of Law improves powers of reasoning, clarity of thought and the ability to analyse and express complicated ideas and such skills are in demand in a wide variety of areas.
