  • Program Outline

    The Master of Laws provides access to a range of areas to suit both domestic and international students proceeding directly from undergraduate study, as well as experienced legal practitioners wishing to specialise in areas of commercial law. This program includes a range of elective courses suited to those with a particular interest in international and comparative commercial law. Applicants must hold an undergraduate Law degree.

    The Master of Commerce (Marketing) is designed to provide a comprehensive, up-to-date understanding of concepts, techniques and professional applications in marketing to graduates of non-marketing disciplines. For those candidates with a recognised marketing degree, advanced level marketing courses provide greater depth and breadth in strategic thinking and analytical tools in marketing and business. The study of marketing at an advanced level may enable candidates to move more rapidly into senior marketing positions in consumer, business, government, community service and not-for-profit organisations.

    This combined academic program of Master of Laws/Master of Commerce (Marketing) enables students to undertake a specialisation in Marketing, while also focussing on business, commercial regulation and international law. Graduates will be well placed to function in international and domestic business and commercial regulatory environments.
