Bachelor of International Studies / Bachelor of Laws


Course Details

International studies examine the relationships of societies, cultures, languages and systems of government within the international system. It develops students' capacity to analyse the historical development of relations among nation states and contemporary political, social and cultural issues, such as globalisation, transnationalism and migration. The law component combines a broad liberal legal education with a strong practical orientation. It is designed to equip students with the required knowledge and skills for legal practice. Those not seeking to practice as legal practitioners will gain a liberal learning experience, which will be enriched by its exposure to the ethos and practice of the law.
