Overview

Bachelor of Business / Bachelor of Laws (Honours)

Within the combined degree program, students study a combination of Bachelor of Business and Bachelor of Laws (Honours) courses at The University of Newcastle over five years full-time. 

Upon completing the first three years, students will have completed all the courses required for the Bachelor of Business degree. 

You'll undertake courses relevant to your chosen specialty in the second and third years of your business degree

Business Majors: Entrepreneurship and Innovation, Human Resource Management, International Business, Leadership and Management, Marketing, Politics and International Relations, Tourism & Event Management

In the final two years of the combined degree program, students complete the Bachelor of Laws (Honours) requirements and may enrol in these two years on a less than full-time basis.

Students completing this combined degree program become specialists in Business and meet the academic requirements to practice law in NSW.

Alternatively, students completing this degree may apply for the Bachelor of Laws (Honours) /Diploma of Legal Practice Program, which allows immediate admission to legal practice upon graduation.

Commencement in this program is only available in Semester 1. Due to timetabling issues, this program is unavailable for a Semester 2 commencement.
