Law isn't just for lawyers
The School offers a suite of programs in applied law which are designed for non-law graduates who would find some legal background useful in their careers, or who have a special interest in law but do not seek admission to legal practice.
Non-law graduates seeking the qualifications to practise law should refer to the Bachelor of Laws program.
Applied law students come from a diverse range of industries and professions including accounting, education, engineering, foreign affairs, industrial relations, management, medicine, politics, taxation, insurance and others.
As well as receiving a stimulating and practical introduction to basic legal concepts, students enrolled in an applied law program can undertake elective courses of special relevance to their professions or occupations.
The majority of courses are taught intensively, either in blocks of four days or in two blocks of two days to allow students to accommodate study and the demands of professional or other commitments. Classes are held at the St Lucia campus or at Brisbane city venues.
Postgraduate students from other Universities can study at the TC Beirne School of Law for credit towards their degrees at their home institutions. Click here for further information.
