Sydney Law School offers one of the nation’s leading postgraduate programs in health and medical law. The Master of Health Law (MHL) is a flexible, specialist postgraduate qualification in health law providing wide-ranging interdisciplinary coverage of contemporary legal and social issues in health care. The Graduate Diploma in Health Law (GradDipHL) provides a shorter postgraduate qualification in health law. The Graduate Diploma
in Public Health Law (GradDipPubHL) provides a specialist postgraduate qualification focusing on laws and legal strategies for protecting and promoting public health. Graduates from either diploma may apply to upgrade to the Master of Health Law (MHL).
Those with a particular interest in public health law may either enrol in the GradDipPubHL, or alternatively choose public health elective units within the MHL. The Master of Health Law (MHL), and each of the graduate diplomas, consists of core units, together with a diverse range of electives. A law degree is not necessary for entry. The health law program will be of particular significance to health lawyers, health administrators, doctors, nurses and other eligible health professionals.
The public health law program will also interest lawyers, health professionals and others working in public health in government, in public health organisations, and in the community health sector, and those working in industry whose role encompasses public health regulation. The Law School’s seminar-style teaching is enriched by lecturers who are active researchers, and by contributions from visiting interstate and overseas experts. Students can keep abreast of current issues by attending the Health Law Seminar Series, and other periodic events.
