Learning

Outline

An increasingly globalised world has opened up a wealth of opportunities. We've connected with people all over the world, using the digital sphere to meet, network, and build online communities and friendships. But what happens when our freedom is restricted? How do governments control crime? From cybercrime to fraud and your right to a free trial, our Law course explores the notion of what’s right and wrong in the eyes of modern law and the pressing issues regulating our lives.

Teaching methodology

Learning in a small group (no more than 8 students and often fewer) means that you get quality time with your teacher and ask as many questions as you like! Through interactive learning, our teachers will guide you through new concepts and assign you practice tasks to build your knowledge and skills. You will also have an opportunity for group work, independent research, and homework assignments to be discussed in class. Small classes mean everyone gets to have their say, and students learn from debating with one another, as well as from their tutor.

The Summer Courses experience

Hosted within the hallowed halls of Oxford Colleges, students delve into subjects under the guidance of experts, fostering curiosity and critical thinking in a diverse, multicultural setting. The fusion of social activities and academic pursuits nurtures independent growth, complemented by empowering masterclasses and university fairs. 'Insider info' handbooks assist students in maximising their free time, while a gradual increase in freedom accompanies them through different age groups. This inclusive and welcoming environment encourages independent thinking, allowing you to explore your passions freely. Discover subjects you love without the constraints of traditional expectations, providing abundant opportunities for both personal and academic growth.

Andy, Germany

"The time I spent at Oxford Summer Courses summer school was unforgettable, which sparked my strong interest in studying law. There were only two students in the law-learning class, and our tutor at Oxford Summer Courses was a professional with extensive experience in the legal field."

"After finishing the course at Oxford Summer Courses, I feel as if I have not only learned more about law but also understand how our modern-day society is able to function in the way it does. As the rules that keep life in order and punish wrongdoers using justice, as I learnt in my first class, law is used every day and is crucial in our lives."
