Legal education in the United Kingdom is divided between the common law system of England and Wales and Northern Ireland, and that of Scotland, which uses a hybrid of common law and civil law. Dundee and Strathclyde〔http://www.strath.ac.uk/humanities/courses/law/courses/llbscotsandenglishlaw/〕 in Scotland, are the only universities in the UK to offer a dual-qualifying degree. Dundee also offers a choice of either English/Northern Irish or Scots law separate LL.B. degrees. Aberdeen offers a "Law with English Law" course, however, this does not qualify a graduate to practise law in England.〔http://www.abdn.ac.uk/law/news/5978/〕 == England, Wales and Northern Ireland == Requirements for becoming a lawyer in England and Wales and in Northern Ireland differ slightly depending on whether the individual plans to become a solicitor or barrister. All prospective lawyers must first however possess a qualifying law degree,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=SRA – Academic Stage )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=How to Become a Barrister ) 〕 or have completed a conversion course.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Solicitors Regulation Authority )〕 A qualifying law degree in England and Wales consists of seven modules drawn from the following subject areas: * Public law (constitutional/administrative) * European Union law * Procedural law (including law of evidence) * Criminal law * Law of obligations (contract, restitution, and tort) * Property law (real property) * Trusts and equity Following graduation, the paths towards qualification as a solicitor or barrister diverge. Prospective solicitors must enroll with the Law Society of England and Wales as a student member and take a one-year course called the Legal Practice Course (LPC), usually followed by two years' apprenticeship, known as a training contract.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=SRA – Training contract information )〕 Prospective barristers must first apply to join one of the four Inns of Court and then complete the one-year Bar Professional Training Course (BPTC), followed by a year training in a set of barristers' chambers, known as pupillage.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Legal education in the United Kingdom」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
