Course overview

Students gain the business expertise and legal qualifications required to practise law. The business program focuses on providing skills to prepare students for future professional employment and positions of leadership, in organisations and the community. These skills complement a graduate's legal knowledge, particularly in areas such as management, corporate and commercial tax, and written communication. Law classes and workshops provide students with real-world experiences and involve judges and senior academics along with local law firms, government agencies, community organisations and the local bar. This course is accredited by the Legal Practitioners Admissions Board and Chief Justice. JCU Offer Guarantee: JCU offers guaranteed admissions to most courses if a minimum ATAR is achieved.

If the student's current English result is below the direct-entry requirement, consider the university's recognised English language pathway or ELICOS package. When the student successfully completes the approved pathway at the required level, the university may accept that pathway for English entry without requiring a new IELTS, TOEFL or PTE result. Always confirm exclusions for professional registration courses and the offer conditions.
