We are the central hub of aspiring lawyers at the University of manchester.

About Us

The Manchester University Law Society (MULS) is the largest society at The University of Manchester and one of the largest law societies in the UK. With over 1,000 members, both of whom are law and non-law students, MULS is a society that is focused on the career prospects and social life of its members.

Manchester is often dubbed the “Legal Capital of the North". With more and more firms "north-shoring" their operations, the career opportunities in Manchester in the legal sector have never been so large. It is unsurprising therefore why our twenty-seven sponsors choose MULS. Manchester has a world-class university, a skilled population and houses the third largest airport in the UK. This, coupled with the unique rapport that MULS amongst students is why firms choose us and why firms want to engage with you.

Dear all,

As the largest and longest-standing law society at the University of Manchester, our award-winning society represents the face of future lawyers on campus.

We were honoured to be awarded the esteemed 'Most Committed to Increasing Diversity' title at the LawCareers.Net Society Awards 2023, marking consecutive years of victory. These accolades stand as a testament to our unwavering dedication to fostering an inclusive and forward-thinking community.

Our society takes pride in organizing over 25 career events and an exceptional Commercial Awareness Programme, providing our members with valuable opportunities for growth and development.

As we move forward, our focus remains steadfast on three key principles: innovation, interactiveness, and inclusion.

Innovation is at the heart of our society. We constantly strive to transcend traditional boundaries and deliver engaging events that challenge the status quo. By collaborating with industry leaders, we offer networking, career development, and knowledge exchange platforms that prepare our members for the ever-evolving legal landscape.

Interactiveness forms the foundation of MULS. We cherish and nurture a vibrant community where every member's voice is heard and valued. Building strong relationships is a priority for us, and we aim to create a network that extends far beyond your time at Manchester University.

Diversity is our greatest strength. We embrace and celebrate the diverse perspectives and experiences that our members bring to the table. Our society actively promotes equity, dismantles barriers, and strives to create an environment where all feel respected, valued, and empowered to contribute fully.

We recognize that our achievements and aspirations are made possible by the support and participation of dedicated members and sponsors like you. Whether you are considering becoming a member or supporting us as a sponsor, your involvement is integral to our success.

Thank you for your unwavering support and dedication.

Sincerely,

Tessy. E. Idemudia
