Course Description

Choose from a range of science electives (physical, biological or chemical… take your pick), and combine them ever so appealingly with law subjects, including those in the contract, property, equity or administrative arenas with UC’s Bachelor of Science/Bachelor of Laws double degree. You’ll gain a broad theoretical and technical knowledge of both disciplines, extend your research capabilities and develop a commercial focus that will up your kudos in a host of professions, including as a lab assistant or technician, researcher, science communicator and technical writer or as a solicitor, barrister or advocate. Our experienced staff will encourage you to develop your legal skills while understanding their connections to the theory and history of law. Supporting your development will be UC’s small class sizes and state-of-the-art facilities, along with ties with the National Centre for Corporate Law and National Institute of Governance. You’ll also benefit from the relationships the University has forged with law firms, the public sector (a huge employer in Canberra) and non-government organisations (also known as N;s). UC’s law program is recognised by the Supreme Courts of the ACT and NSW, and our articulation pathways and partnerships with law firms and overseas universities can help you qualify for a law internship or seek admission to the UK or the US (hello, OS career!). What’s more, you will be able to fast-track your studies during our winter term and in your final year, begin the Graduate Diploma of Legal Practice.
