UWI St. Augustine Faculties
Law
The law of the particular territory regulates entry into the
legal profession in all the Caribbean territories, but as a result
of a regional agreement the basic requirements tend to
follow a common pattern. The University of the West Indies
offers a Bachelor of Law’s degree (LLB), which satisfies the
requirements for entry into the professional law schools, where
upon graduation with a Legal Education Certificate, students
are admitted to practice.
At the St. Augustine campus, students do the first year of the
three-year LLB programme. Upon successful completion of
the first year, students proceed to the second and third years
of the programme at the Faculty of Law located at the Cave
Hill Campus, Barbados.
