Employability

Graduates from the University of Glasgow’s School of Law go on to become leaders in their field and many senior judges, advocates, barristers and solicitors have begun their legal careers at the university. We know that employers both nationally and internationally recognise the value of a law degree from Glasgow. 95% of our undergraduates and 92% of our postgraduates are in work or further study within 15 months of graduating from the School of Law. Glasgow law graduates go onto work at some of largest law firms nationally and internationally such as Brodies, Clifford Chance & Allen & Overy and secure highly competitive legal positions in the public sector with organisations such as the Crown Office and the Procurator Fiscal Service, and the Scottish Government.
