Tort Law offers the opportunity to explore the basis and extent of legal liability arising from negligent (careless) conduct and its impact on others.You will develop skills in legal research, critical analysis and application of legal knowledge to a variety of different situations. The Contract and Tort Law module aims to develop you into a 'degree candidate' who can demonstrate the necessary tools for unravelling complex information, and able to apply the relevant knowledge and materials in a meaningful way.
