School of Law 60th Anniversary
September 2025 marks 60 years since the School of Law opened at Queen Mary. Since 1965, we have been at the forefront of legal education, welcoming students from London, across the UK, and around the world, while pioneering innovative teaching and research in the field.
To celebrate our anniversary and reflect on a legacy spanning six decades, we are hosting a series of events and activities throughout the academic year from September 2025 to August 2026.
Whether you’re a current student, alumnus, partner, staff member or a member of our local community, we invite you to join us in celebrating sixty years of Queen Mary's School of Law.
