Overview

Combine law and justice to unlock a diverse range of careers in law, policy and social justice. The integration of these two degrees will equip you with deep knowledge in policy, governance and legal issues, and their impact on society. You'll gain advanced understanding of the law and legal system, and graduate with broad career options in both the legal and justice sector with this Justice - Laws (Honours) course at Queensland University of Technology.

Tailor your degree to your interests by choosing a major in either criminology and violence prevention, intelligence and investigations, or policy, politics and social reform, in your justice degree. By combining these majors with the Bachelor of Laws (Honours), students will develop a strong understanding of the causes and impacts of injustice. Students can learn how to prosecute offenders effectively and gain the skills to design legislation that protects communities.
