With long-standing success in print and broadcast and a commitment to online and mobile technology, QUT can prepare you for the full range of journalism career options.
As a student at the QUT School of Law you will benefit from innovative teaching methods and facilities and will be taught by a dedicated, highly experienced team of professionals: full-time academics with solid professional and community experience and practising legal professionals with specialised expertise.
Approximately 90 per cent of QUT law graduates gain employment or continue with further studies such as the QUT Legal Practice Course for admission as legal practitioners.
You will have the opportunity to specialise in commercial law, corporate law, taxation law, medico-legal issues, alternative dispute resolution, public international law, Asian legal systems, feminist theories of law or environmental law.
QUT staff will provide every form of assistance possible, but it is ultimately your responsibility to ensure the accuracy and validity of your enrolment. Your Course Summary is the authoritative source on which units to complete and the order of progression required to get you to graduation.
Make sure you provide an accurate mailing address for University correspondence and keep it up to date. Failure to receive a notice because of change of address is not a sufficient excuse for missing a deadline or obligation. The University will deem that correspondence issued to your recorded mailing address has been received.
You must activate your QUT student email as it will be used for a range of correspondence and notification by the University including Library notices and fee statements.
