Overview

The Bachelor of Laws (LLB) fulfils the academic requirements for admission as a lawyer in Australia and can be completed in just three years of full-time study. In addition to the core units, which comply with professional accreditation requirements, the course includes a wide range of elective law units with a focus on justice and critique.

Applicants who do not have the required entry mark for Bachelor of Laws are encouraged to apply for 336300 AssocDeg Law (Paralegal Studies) or 336110 Bachelor of Legal and Justice Studies. If they achieve the required grade point average during either of those courses, they can then apply for transfer into Bachelor of Laws.
