Background
History
Law degrees have been awarded at Durham University since the university's inception in the 1830s, mainly to graduates working in law, and there was a reader in law from 1833 to 1872 who gave occasional lectures on the subject. Regular law lectures began in 1907 at Armstrong College in Newcastle (now Newcastle University) and the first formal law school was established there in 1923. After Newcastle became independent of Durham in 1963, law teaching was introduced in Durham in 1964. Durham Law School as a formal institution within the university was founded in 1969. It was congratulated on its 50th anniversary in a House of Commons early day motion in 2018.
