"Excellent programme! I really feel like this helps law students have a better understanding of the work that goes on in law firms. It is also a chance for students to get an insight into different legal sectors, which we do not study at university. Therefore, it gives us an excellent chance to improve our research skills."-- Student from Middlesex University
