Welcome to the Faculty of Business and Law

The Faculty of Business and Law at Roehampton consists of both the Business School and Law School. Together they form a friendly, inspired and diverse community of students and staff who believe that businesses and legal professionals should act with a social conscience. These values are embedded in our teaching and research.

We want our graduates to be at the forefront of their careers so that they can make a difference as reflective and socially responsible ethical practitioners.

Optional placements and study abroad options are available for many of our programmes.

 

You can join any of our student-led societies including the Law Society and Business Club Society.
