Course Information

Designed and taught by practising lawyers and academics, Deakin’s accredited Bachelor of Laws integrates sound legal training with real-world experience, developing key skills in problem-solving, analytical thinking and ethical reasoning.

The course attracts some of the best and brightest students in Australia and our graduates enjoy high employment rates in dynamic roles across law, business, journalism, public administration, private enterprise and politics.

A distinctive feature of our law degree is experiential learning.

As credit towards your degree, you’ll undertake work-integrated learning placements. You may be placed at law firms, legal aid providers and government offices that deliver the legal skills and experience that employers are looking for in a competitive job market.
