Overview

The combination of Law and Psychology is ideal if you want to combine a career in law with a deeper understanding of human behaviour, or want to pursue a career in psychology in areas such as the criminal and justice systems.

The Bachelor of Laws degree is a qualification approved by the Legal Practice Board of Western Australia. It will equip you with legal knowledge and core skills that are essential to effective legal practice.

It will also give you a strong awareness of commercial law and opportunities to connect with industry.

The Bachelor of Science (Psychology) will teach you about emotion, behaviour, cognition, interpersonal relationships, perception and personality. You will learn how to examine, explain and predict what people do as individuals and in groups.

A further year of study is required in Psychology to obtain provisional registration as a psychologist in Australia.
