COURSE DESCRIPTION
Our fast-track trimester timetable makes it easy to tackle a double degree at Bond. In fact, you can complete two degrees here in less time than you could graduate with just one at most other universities.

The combination of business and law lays the groundwork for an almost unlimited selection of career options in the corporate, finance, legal, government and community sectors. You will have the full suite of skills in business management, entrepreneurship, human resources, and communication, along with complementary skills in negotiation, mediation, dispute resolution, advocacy, and legal know-how.

You will have access to the Bond Business Accelerator bootcamp, and our Innovation Workshop Series run by the Commercialisation Centre, as well as Bond’s FinTech Hub equipped with 40 live Bloomberg terminals.
Your law studies cover all the compulsory subjects required for your pathway for admission to legal practice in Australia, plus the opportunity to specialise in an area of interest. You will develop advanced ‘lawyering’ skills in legal writing and reasoning, oral communication, advocacy, dispute resolution, negotiation, research, legal ethics, and professionalism.

The Bachelor of Laws provides an engaging learning experience that challenges students academically and prepares them practically for a legal career.
