Faculty of Arts and Design, and Faculty of Law
One of the University of Canberra's key strategic priorities is internationalisation. One of the best ways to achieve this is to maximise the possibility of students taking a combined degree with International Studies.
The Bachelor of Arts in International Studies degree gives students the opportunity to attain intercultural understandings and develop conceptual knowledge of international issues. Foreign language study provides in-depth cultural insight and an enhanced ability to function at an international level. International Studies investigate the interplay of cultural, political and economic forces in the global arena. A highly recommended international exchange semester provides first-hand international experience.
The Bachelor of Laws degree offers the following advantages:
- Fully accredited as a basis for admission to practice law in Australia.
- Focus upon corporate and commercial law, with minors in other areas to cater for student preferences.
- Teaching program enhanced by research strengths with student opportunities to be involved in UC's National Centre for Corporate Law, the National Institute of Governance and e-Justice and Court of the Future Networks.
- Opportunities for law internships and international study through linkages with law firms, governments and overseas universities.
- Small class sizes, highly-qualified staff, state-of-the art facilities, including oncampus and remote access to all the major online legal databases.
