Bachelor of Laws
An excellent grounding
In the single degree you will study a mixture of compulsory and elective courses. You can choose from a rich selection of electives in a broad range of areas, including International Law, Environmental Law, Law Reform and Human Rights Law. The degree also allows you to study 8 non-law elective courses, in order to further enrich your study experience.
Most courses are worth 6 units each and 48 units is the standard 'full time load'. In a normal full time semester you will take four courses totalling 24 units.
Compulsory courses will give you an excellent grounding in the fundamental branches of the law.
Elective courses grant a deepening understanding in your areas of special interest.
