Career opportunities

The Bachelor of Laws prepares graduates for a career as a legal professional. Aside from the traditional roles as a solicitor, barrister or in-house counsel, a law degree is useful for careers in academia, business, the public service and politics. Graduates will also need to complete further practical legal training before being admitted as a legal practitioner. This may include completion of a Graduate Diploma in Legal Practice at another institution or a 12-month traineeship at a law firm.
