Why study the Bachelor of Laws?

This graduate entry program is designed to give students a sound knowledge of core areas of law; a broad introduction to the legal system as a whole; and the opportunity to develop legal skills. The curriculum is continually reviewed to incorporate developments and changes in the law and in professional requirements. The program fulfils the academic requirements for admission to the legal profession while developing independent thought and research ability. Students develop computerised legal information retrieval skills and professional, clinical and legal analysis skills. The program is designed for non-law graduates. Due to the requirements of the Australian legal system accreditation and the reduced number of elective courses in this progam, full student exchange opportunities are not possible, however more flexible short term overseas study experiences may be possible.
