Each year, Bangor University Law School hosts the University of Missouri Kansas City (UMKC) / Southern Illinois University (SIU) Summer Law programme at Bangor.

2011 Summer Law Programme

During their stay at Bangor, the students studied European Union Law and Intellectual Property Law and enjoyed a tour of the English Crown Courts at Chester where they sat in on a Facebook slander trial, held in the very Courtroom where the Moors Murderers were tried in April 1966.
