Postgraduate Diploma in Law (PGDL)

Introduction

The Postgraduate Diploma in Law (PGDL) is a law programme designed for both
candidates who studied law in their undergraduate degree and those candidates who
wish to develop their career in law no matter what subject they gained in their
original degrees.

General Aims & Objectives of the Programme

The PGDL aims to give students a firm grounding in the principles of law – not just
knowledge of the law itself but also (and just as importantly) developing the essential
skills of legal analysis, research and presentation. Once completed successfully, the
Postgraduate Diploma in Law programme allows graduates to proceed to a master
degree ( for those who had no qualification for direct entry into master programme) or
become  legal officers, arbitrators, mediators, corporation secretaries, etc as the case
may be.
