About

Notre Dame’s Bachelor of Laws (Graduate Entry) is a career-focused degree that can be completed in three years of accelerated full-time study rather than the usual four years. This degree provides a gateway to a rewarding career in Law and can provide a strong foundation for other career opportunities. This degree will prepare you to work as a lawyer in a private practice, in government, as corporate counsel or in a not-for-profit organisation.

While it can be challenging, the legal profession is also an immensely rewarding one. At Notre Dame, we have worked with leading judges, senior barristers and solicitors to design a quality degree that is rigorous, ethical, practical and relevant to the current Australian legal landscape. This degree combines a comprehensive coverage of legal and ethical principles, as well as the skills to apply these principles in legal practice.

Areas of study

For Laws: Administration law, advocacy, alternative dispute resolution, civil procedure, commercial practice and ethics, contract law, constitutional law, corporations and partnerships, criminal law, equity, evidence, international law, legal history, legal philosophy, legal process and statutory interpretation, legal research and writing, property law, remedies, torts, trusts.
