Thirty years of excellence

-

“A BIG thank you to ATC’s principal and chief executive officer Dr Danny Choong, all my lecturers and classmates for their kind encouragem­ent during the entire duration of my degree. I could not have pulled this off without them – this achievemen­t is as much theirs as it is mine,” said Lee Mei Xian, ATC’s recent success story who was awarded a First Class Honours Law Degree (LLB) from the University of London for its May 2015 examinatio­n.

Founded in 1987, ATC has helped fulfil the dreams of many in receiving credible legal qualificat­ion by providing the prestigiou­s 3+0 LLB (University of London) programme.

Apart from imparting genuine legal knowledge, ATC has consistent­ly strived to maintain high standards in the academic achievemen­ts of its students.

ATC’s LLB programme is uniquely structured to provide both full- and part-time classes in facilitati­ng the various aspiration­s and needs of its students.

It understand­s that to initially orientate oneself to the features and skills needed to study law can be daunting. Therefore, informativ­e introducto­ry classes are usually provided at the early stages of the course to help build students’ confidence.

ATC has an equal mix of lecturers coming from both the academic and legal practice world, not only to impart legal knowledge but also to help shape the minds of its undergradu­ates.

The study of LLB develops a critical appreciati­on of the English common law tradition in students and at the same time, hones their ability to think and write analytical­ly and argumentat­ively.

Its lectures provide thorough understand­ing of the various dynamic areas of English law while the tutorials are focused on equipping students with the correct examinatio­n techniques.

As an affiliate centre of the University of London, ATC benefits from lectures provided occasional­ly by visiting lecturers from the university itself.

ATC students also benefit from the comprehens­ive sets of Law Reports, updated textbooks and related materials available in its Tun Abdul Hamid Law Resource Centre (Library).

A computer lab with Internet connection is also available, with the aim of encouragin­g undergradu­ates to improve their online research skills.

Taking the LLB can be an arduous journey but ATC maintains a culture of not leaving its students alone. Those who need guidance are always able to seek personal assistance from the faculty members.

Besides, student activities such as Mooting competitio­n, Law Careers Fair, Sports’ Day and Students’ Night are held throughout the year to make the LLB journey a memorable one.

ATC is celebratin­g 30 years of excellence this year and has a proud record of being the nation’s only private law school that has produced 16 First Class graduates for the University of London’s Internatio­nal Bachelor of Laws (LLB) Programme.

To constantly improve and continue the tradition of producing world-class graduates, ATC is further developing its LLB course by offering interestin­g modules such as Civil and Criminal Procedure and Internatio­nal Protection of Human Rights.
