Teaching awards



According to The Complete University Guide, Strathclyde Law School is in the UK's top 10 (2020). According to Times Higher Education, the University of Strathclyde was placed 76th best in law globally among universities in 2018.
Professor Kenneth Norrie was awarded Scottish Law Lecturer of the Year 2007 at the Law Awards of Scotland, and the Law School obtained more nominations than any other law school in 2007, with Professors Norrie, Robson and Rodger being nominated.
The nominations for the 2008 award also included two Strathclyde Law School lecturers: Professor John Blackie and Professor Donald Nicolson.
In the 2009 New Year Honours List Professor Alan Paterson was awarded an OBE for services to law and legal education. In 2011, Professor Donald Nicolson was appointed an OBE for services to the legal profession.




The Law Clinic



The University of Strathclyde Law Clinic was set up in October 2003 by Professor Donald Nicolson, and was the first University-run Law Clinic in Scotland. The Law Clinic offers free legal advice and help to residents of Glasgow and the surrounding area who cannot afford a solicitor or do not qualify for legal aid. Dealing mainly with employment law and small claims issues, the Clinic has branched out in recent years into a variety of projects including an immigration unit, the Scottish Women's Rights Centre, and schools and prisons projects.
The current Law Clinic offices are located on Level 5 of the Graham Hills Building, on the University of Strathclyde John Anderson campus.
In 2016, the University of Strathclyde Law School won the pro bono award at the Scott and Co. Law Awards in Edinburgh. The Law Clinic has also won awards at the Law Works and Attorney General Awards in London: in 2016 Fergus Lawrie was given the prize for best contribution by an individual student, a prize that was also won on a previous occasion (in 2014) by Jacky Wall.
The University of Strathclyde Law Clinic is now the biggest law clinic in the UK and is primarily run by a committee of students.




Mooting


The Law School has an active mooting society, which organises an internal competition for Strathclyde students and competes in various Scottish and UK external competitions.
Fiona Malone and Lucy Brunton won the final of the inaugural NSLS Scottish Cup in the Court of Session in January 2015. Drew Long and Jonny Brown reached the semi-finals of the Alexander Stone Moot 2015, and Clara Smeaton and Drew Long won the annual Sheriff Cup Moot against the University of Glasgow, judged by Lady Wolffe from the Court of Session, in April 2015.
In 2016, a team from Strathclyde (Michael Anderson, Eddie Ferguson, and Clara Smeaton) went to the London qualifying rounds of the Jessup Moot. Also in 2016, Strathclyde hosted the European qualifiers for the Manfred Lachs Space Law moot and entered a team who reached the semi-finals of the European fixtures. In April 2015, the University of Strathclyde Mooting Society was asked to provide a team to represent the UK in the Commonwealth Moot Competition, which was held in Glasgow, when one of the teams had to pull out at the last minute.
In 2014, Clara Smeaton and Vanessa Puthucheary were runners-up in the ICLR mooting competition after successfully beating over 20 English university teams, on points of English law, to reach the final.
