About
The Bachelor of Laws degree provides a gateway to a rewarding career in law as well as a strong foundation for other career opportunities.
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.
Our Bachelor of Laws degree provides a solid grounding in legal theory and practice, and the opportunity to hone your negotiation, advocacy and mooting skills. Through our mentoring program, mooting and internship programs, you are provided with multiple opportunities to experience the law in practice. You are also encouraged to learn outside of the classroom by attending seminars and professional development events.
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.
The Bachelor of Human Resource Management will equip students with the skills to effectively manage organisations and their employees. The degree combines theoretical training with practical workplace skills; this combination is designed to prepare graduates to be able to thrive in a modern business environment.
