Overview

This course combines core law units with units of legal study which cover the requisite areas of knowledge (also referred to as the 'Priestley Eleven'). You will develop lawyers' skills such as analytical legal writing, drafting, communication and advocacy.

Business units in this double degree will equip you with the skills, knowledge and professional acumen across a range of business areas, providing you with broad and solid grounding for careers in the legal community, business or government. You will gain specialist business knowledge drawn from one of the Business majors available.

We've changed the way we teach our courses, so that you experience a first year like no other - focused on you and your success.
