Law with Welsh (Y Gyfraith gyda’r Gymraeg) Undergraduate - 2021 Entry

Law with Welsh is a 3 year Qualifying Law Degree for students who intend to follow a career in Wales, and who wish to ensure they will be able to use their legal skills after graduating with the same ability and confidence in Welsh and English, in order to fulfil the needs of a bilingual society in modern Wales.

Each piece of legislation produced by the Welsh Government is published bilingually. There is therefore a great demand in Wales, not only for lawyers who are able to read and understand both versions of the text, but who can also contribute to drafting court papers bilingually. This demand will certainly increase as the Assembly’s legislative process develops.

In compulsory modules you will usually have 2 hours of lectures every week and one hour-long tutorial every fortnight, while in optional courses tuition is by means of weekly seminars, 2 hours in length. Reading and library-based research are required before tutorials and seminars. Written essays and/or class tests are also set. Final assessment is by means of coursework and examinations.

Gall myfyrwyr ddewis prynu llyfrau os ydynt am gael eu copïau eu hunain, ond nid yw hyn yn orfodol (bydd yr holl lyfrau ar gael yn y llyfrgell). Bydd union faint y gost hon yn dibynnu'n llwyr ar y myfyriwr unigol, ond gellid amcangyfrif y bydd nifer o fyfyrwyr yn dewis gwario rhyw £20 y modiwl. 

Os bydd myfyrwyr yn mynychu'r seremoni raddio, telir c.£12 am docyn i'r myfyriwr a dau westai, a rhyw c.£40 i logi gwn (gall y prisiau hyn newid).
