This is a graduate entry program that provides students with the opportunity for a comprehensive study of law, not only to prepare for practice as a solicitor or barrister in Queensland but also to examine the legal process and its social, political and economic context. The program aims to equip students with an academic qualification for professional practice with particular specialisations offered in environmental and natural resources law, international law and general practice as well as an extensive specialisation in commercial law. While this is a focused program preparing students for professional practice with particular skills in applied legal research, it also builds the special capabilities that a legal education can offer, such as complex problem-solving and policy analysis.
