As a result of the recent review of the LLB program, a revised program structure for the LLB will commence in 2008. Students who commenced their program prior to 2008 may complete their studies under the programs rules then in force. However, the revised program will impact on pre-2008 students through changes in course numbering, the unit value of some courses, the availability of compulsory courses, and in the range of electives.
All pre-2008 students are strongly encouraged to read through the following documents. They summarise the main changes to the program and include important tips for program planning.
- Summary of Changes and Tips for Program Planning
- Individual Course Transition Arrangements
Recommended Study Plans *
Students should refer to the recommended study plan below for the year they commenced their program. These study plans show the courses that single and dual pre-2008 students should take from 2008 to complete their programs.
NB. Students who up until this point have not been following the recommended study plan for their program may need to seek additional program planning advice.

* As part of the transitional arrangements in 2008 and 2009, it will be necessary for some students to undertake LAWS1115 Principles of Public Law, LAWS1116 Constitutional Law and LAWS2115 Administrative Law other than in the order implied by the listed prerequisites. Accordingly, for 2008 and 2009, these courses will not presuppose the prior study of the prerequisite courses. Where necessary, students will be given supplemental material.
