This double Bachelors degree is for students who aim for a legal career combining an interest in particular aspects of science. The science component allows students great flexibility in their choice of subjects and enables opportunities for students to prepare themselves for careers in research, technology, science, mathematics and education, or areas of management or public policy which involve the use of science or mathematics. . The law degree may be awarded with honours.

To enable completion in a minimum of five years, time savings are arranged mainly by taking the LLB units as the open elective major in the existing Bachelor of Science course. It is important therefore to follow closely the study programme arranged by the course convener to achieve the minimum time.  This course advice should be sought at the beginning of studies.

Students undertaking the double degree will be able to graduate with the science degree upon completion of the academic requirements for that degree in advance of the law degree.  The law degree will also permit admission to practice after a further study for a Graduate Diploma in Professional Practice in Law or the College of Law Program in NSW.
