Overview

Bachelor of Laws (Honours)

At QUT, students prepare for the modern world of law. 

This law degree is unique in its balance between legal principles and practice.

With a practical, hands-on approach to teaching, students gain a comprehensive understanding of the Australian legal system and core areas of law required for admission to legal practice in Australia.

Students also learn about the relationship between Australia's Indigenous people and the legal system through Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander perspectives on law.

The legal industry is experiencing rapid evolution due to significant advancements in data-driven technologies that fundamentally change many aspects of society.

As a result, students are increasingly required to develop new skills and capabilities to adapt to the changing nature of law and legal work. 

The teaching staff comprises award-winning academics and industry-leading professionals who bring real-world experience and theoretical knowledge to the classroom.

Designed closely with industry partners, the honours-level law courses are modern, relevant, and uphold industry standards.

Another way students are prepared for the real world is via work-integrated learning opportunities.

These include legal clinics, community justice projects, study tours, internships, and meet-the-profession events.

By participating in these programs, students can build their professional network and gain valuable practical experience while earning credit for their degree.
