The Bachelor of Laws provides students with a broad progressive legal education with a strong practical orientation to the law. Students develop skills in problem-solving, critical thinking, research, communication, collaboration, self-management, and ethical and professional awareness and judgement. Students will also develop skills in legal advocacy, negotiation, and legal technology and extend their professional and learning experiences through work integrated learning, clinical placement and international exchange engagements.
The program couples highly sought after degrees in law and business. You will develop professional legal skills, including the ability to analyse and interpret legal material, understand fundamental legal principles, the relationship between law and society, and solve non-legal problems. You will also be able to tailor your study for career paths in a variety of local and international law fields.
The program meets the undergraduate academic requirements for admission to legal practice through the Legal Profession Admission Board.
Depending on the Business major selected, employment possibilities are available in areas including accounting, taxation, economics, banking and finance, industrial relations, management, government, policy and governance, marketing and property. Graduates may pursue further specialised study.
Special emphasis is placed on the development of skills in advocacy, negotiation, legal drafting and legal research.
