As an alternative to taking the LLB course alone, students may combine the
degree of Bachelor of Laws with the degree of Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of
Arts (Asian Studies), Bachelor of Arts (Australian Studies), Bachelor of Arts
(European Studies), Bachelor of Arts (Social Sciences), Bachelor of Performing
Arts, Bachelor of Music, Bachelor of Business (Management), Bachelor of
Business (Banking and Finance), Bachelor of Business Systems, Bachelor of
Commerce, Bachelor of Computer Science, Bachelor of Economics, Bachelor of
Education, Bachelor of Engineering, Bachelor of Psychology (subject to
Education Committee approval), Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Medicine,
Bachelor of Surgery. Any student wishing to take such a combined course must
obtain a quota place in both faculties.
In order to complete both degrees within the minimum period, it is necessary to
follow particular sequences of non-law and law subjects (see resolution 1 of
the faculty board). Students who wish to combine an honours degree in another
faculty with a law degree will be unable to do so in fewer than six years.
Following a review of its curriculum including the structure of law studies
taken as part of a combined degree, the faculty board has approved a
recommendation from the Curriculum Review Committee that during the first three
years of a combined course, the desired sequence of subjects is:
Year 1 |
Year 2 |
Year 3 | |
School leavers |
Legal
process; |
Torts |
Contract; |
Internal
transfer -- |
Legal
process; |
Contract; |
The transitional arrangements to give effect to the above sequence have been
negotiated with other faculties. Students enrolling in a combined course should
consult course advisers.
