MA Canada

Rise to the challenge

Our MA is a UK qualifying law degree that provides key educational components required for the NCA Certificate of Qualification to enter legal practice in Canada. You will qualify in just 21 months compared to the three years it would normally take to obtain an LLB - and gain a greater depth of understanding than is possible in a one year programme.

• Canada to Bristol

  The MA in Law is an accelerated, fast-track, two year, full-time senior status postgraduate degree with a specially devised curriculum for those who have already benefited from a university level education. Our MA Canada Brochure (PDF, 891kB)‌ provides all you need to know about the course - and its relevance to Canadian students.

• Be inspired

  In this series of Canadian inspired Q&As we interviewed a number of Law School graduates to find out why they chose Bristol, what inspired them during their time here - and what they've gone on to do since. You can also watch our video 'Perspectives from Canadian students'.
