The program is offered for full-time and part-time study. A full-time student may complete the program in four years.
The curriculum consists of compulsory and elective courses, each worth 6 units (with the exception of Honours Thesis, worth 12 units) and one semester in length, with 48 units per year being the standard load adopted by the University. The normal load in each semester is 24 units. The compulsory courses are designed to ensure that every student gains a sufficient grounding in the fundamental branches of the law, and the elective courses provide an opportunity to develop particular interests and to deepen understandings.
Previous law studies
A student who enrols in the single LLB degree program after completing studies at another university may only be granted status for up to half of the courses prescribed for the ANU degree including no more than 72 units of law courses. A student may not repeat in the LLB program a course the syllabus of which is substantially similar to that of a subject passed for the award of another degree or diploma.
Admission Requirements
Admission to all programs is on a competitive basis, taking into account all relevant academic qualifications. If you hold more than one qualification, admission will be based on your overall record. Tertiary qualifications are generally weighted more heavily than secondary. If you have completed an approved tertiary preparation course or alternative entry scheme, you will be assessed on the results of that scheme alone, unless you have undertaken subsequent study.
