The University of New England offers a flexible approach to the study of law. UNE boasts one of Australia&#39;s largest law schools outside a capital city, as well as being an early adopter of innovative technology in the delivery of its law programs. The Bachelor of Laws (4 year) is designed for people who are new to university study or to the study of law, including school leavers or people who want to change careers or get a qualification.The Bachelor of Laws is accredited by the Legal Profession Admission Board of NSW for admission as a legal practitioner in NSW and mutual recognition legislation extends admission to other Australian jurisdictions. After completion of academic qualifications in law, there is a range of employment options from which to choose. Graduates who wish to be admitted to practice as a solicitor, barrister or legal practitioner anywhere in Australia will also have to undertake a course of professional legal training (PLT). This can consist of approximately half a year&#39;s full‐time training undertaken internally or externally, or of equivalent part‐time training. In some jurisdictions, it may be possible to do articles of clerkship instead. Because the system adopted varies from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, enquiries should be made to the admission authority in the state or territory in which you intend to practice; this is usually a committee of the Supreme Court of that State or Territory or a special body set up to administer admissions to the legal profession. Additional information can be found on the <a href="https://www.une.edu.au/about-une/faculty-of-science-agriculture-business-and-law/school-of-law/current-students/legal-profession-admission-board" target="_blank">School of Law page</a>.Please note: students will only be admitted to the full LLB degree upon successful completion of the first four open subjects with a minimum grade point average (GPA) of 4.2.The Bachelor of Laws aims to graduate students who can demonstrate:<ol><li>understanding and knowledge of Australian law and awareness of indigenous, international and theoretical perspectives;</li><li>competence in using legal research and analytical skills that equip them to work in the legal profession or in a broad range of law related occupations;</li><li>the ability to take a strategic approach to problem-solving by applying critical and innovative thinking to complex legal issues and situations;</li><li>competence in oral and written communication;</li><li>the ability to work independently and in groups; and</li><li>professional judgment and knowledge of the ethical responsibilities associated with having completed a law degree.</li></ol>

If you’re passionate about the legal system, or looking for a start to your legal career, this law degree is open to everyone—no matter your background or school marks. Understand Australian law, conduct legal research, and communicate with persuasion.
