Law
Why study Law?
We offer law programs for law and non-law graduates to develop their knowledge and skills in specific and general areas. There are three areas of specialisation: Global Business Law, Fraud Investigation and Public Interest Law.
Global Business Law
Global Business Law develops your knowledge of American, European and Asian-Pacific business law. It is taught by some of the world’s leading academics and commercial practitioners.
Public Interest Law
Public Interest Law studies the intersection between law and the public interest. It explores a range of public interest topics like the environment, inquests, inquiries and commissions, health regulation, disability and human rights. Many subjects are available as separate professional development units.
Fraud Investigation
The unique Fraud Investigation program have been developed as a joint initiative of the School of Law and the Major Fraud Investigation Division (Victoria Police). They have input from experienced lawyers as well as members of major chartered accounting firms.
The program is practically oriented, incorporating case studies, scenarios and practical training and is taught by experienced professionals.
Career opportunities
Global business law and commercial law graduates can build careers in the legal profession, politics, business and commerce, government service, public administration and academia. Public interest law graduates find opportunities in pro bono or public interest practice, regulatory agencies, community legal centres, legal aid agencies and as policy makers. Graduates of our Fraud Investigation programs will be able to bring these keys skills to large and complex organisations in the public and private sectors, including, banking, legal and accounting firms.
