About
Under the combined degree structure you will obtain two degrees in five years. The degrees are structured to allow concurrent study in the two degrees, normally completing the non-law component first. Not all combined degrees are offered on all campuses. Classes are offered across a number of distinct modes – wholly face to face or wholly online or a hybrid of face to face and online.
For information concerning the second degree undertaken with Laws, refer to the course description for that program.
Laws (Combined studies): The locations listed for the combined law courses are primarily based on the location of the Bachelor of Laws component. For locations of the second degree refer to the relevant single degree entry. When listing these combined programs as a preference, check the campus location of the non-law component carefully.
