Program focus

The Bachelor of Commerce and Bachelor of Laws aims to produce graduates who meet the aims and objectives of both the Bachelor of Commerce and the Bachelor of Laws degree programs. This combined degree offers students the benefit of exposure to multiple disciplines. Professional Accreditation The Bachelor of Commerce and Bachelor of Laws satisfies the academic qualification for admission as a legal practitioner (barrister or solicitor) in Queensland. Note that there are additional practical legal training requirements apart from the academic qualification. The degree will also satisfy the academic requirement for admission in the other Australian states and territories, however, students should always confirm legal practice admission requirements for the jurisdiction in which they wish to practise as these are usually done on a case by case basis.

Career opportunities

Private practice solicitor or barrister, government departments, non-government agencies, legal organisations, journalist, public relations practitioner, media company, communications consultant, artist.

Professional accreditation

The Bachelor of Commerce and Bachelor of Laws received accreditation from the Legal Practitioners Admissions Board, Queensland, and the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Queensland on 13 March 2007, as an approved academic qualification under the Supreme Court (Legal practitioner Admission) Rules 2004 (Qld). This will partially satisfy the requirements to practise as a solicitor or barrister in Queensland. (Intending solicitors and barristers must not only complete an approved law degree but also undertake a practical legal training course, either with another university or private provider, or as a supervised program whilst employed in a law firm).
