LLB Conjoint programme

Comments

We decided to limit our treatment of conjoint and double degrees to a few words and a link to an existing homesite page.

The suggested exception to this is the LLB, because 80% of students do a conjoint degree. As such, it seems necessary to give more coverage to this flexibility for this degree.

I have used the major requirements section to describe the conjoint options, as the LLB doesn't have any majors. However, this section of the page is likely to be hand crafted.
