Property Law I provides an introduction to the whole of the law of property, and a detailed examination of the law of property related to land.

Property law is about rights to things. You will learn what property rights are, how they differ from personal rights, and why that distinction matters. You will be introduced to a variety of different property rights recognised in English law. The course covers many of the various ways in which new property rights can be generated, existing property rights can be transferred to others and the rules that are used to resolve disputes when two or more people have competing property rights to the same thing.

Property Law I provides an essential foundation for the study of a number of areas of law, such as commercial law, company law, intellectual property, and trusts. It also helps provide a framework for understanding the relationship among the three pillars of private law: contract, torts, and property. There is overlap in several topics with material and ideas from contract law. The course requires careful and thorough engagement with statutory material, improving skills in statutory interpretation, in addition to using cases.

Reading lists and other materials will be provided for students registered on the module via online Moodle information pages.
