Welcome to Law at USQ

We are one of Australia's newest and most dynamic law schools.  We offer students the flexibility to study on-campus at Springfield or Toowoomba or through distance education.  Our programs will lead to many career opportunities and they can also enhance your present career.

Our academic programs are accredited by the Legal Practitioners Admissions Board, which means that our programs meet all the academic requirements for legal practice in Queensland and in all other Australian States and Territories.  You can choose to take the Bachelor of Laws (LLB) on its own, or one of the following combined degree programs:

If you are already a graduate, you can enrol in the Juris Doctor (JD), which is similar to the LLB but involves a shorter program.  

We have a longstanding strength in the areas of commercial, corporate and taxation law.  With the appointment of new staff, our teaching and research strengths have expanded to include areas such as:

  • General Legal Practice
  • International and Comparative Law
  • Environmental and Natural Resources Law
  • Lawyers and their Ethics

Our commitment is to deliver law programs of the highest possible standard.  Our experienced and approachable lecturers are dedicated to teaching excellence. As a student in one of our programs you can be assured of smaller classes than you will find at many other law schools. In addition, you can have regular contact with your lecturers. Why not join us in the School of Law and give yourself the opportunity for a successful and fulfilling legal career? USQ is a great place to be!
