Law at Sidney
Despite its relatively small size overall, Sidney Sussex College is one of the larger Law colleges of the University. The College has at any time about 30 undergraduates reading Law, together with a substantial number of postgraduate students reading for higher degrees such as the LLM and PhD. It has an energetic student Law society for current students, and the John Thornely Law Society, an active society for Sidney graduates (both those who read Law at Sidney and those who have since entered the legal profession). Law students at Sidney also benefit from a dedicated Law library within the general College library, and a number of bursaries specifically for Law students.
