Monash Law's postgraduate program endeavours to provide further education to lawyers and non-lawyers to assist them to update their skills, specialise in specific areas of the law, undertake research and move into a career in law.
The program curriculum includes Doctor of Philosophy, Doctor of Juridical
Science, Master of Laws (LLM), Master of Philosophy, masters for non-lawyers,
professional practice courses, graduate diplomas, graduate certificates and
single-unit enrolments (assessed and non- assessed). The LLM program offers
both coursework and research options.
The majority of classes are held at the Monash University Law Chambers, located
at 472 Bourke Street, Melbourne (next to the Law Institute). Some classes are
offered at the Clayton campus, with student facilities such as computer
laboratories, study carrels for research students, the graduate common room and
Law Library all located at this campus. Some units are offered online or in
flexible delivery mode.
The administration of the postgraduate coursework program is handled by the
graduate studies officers at the Law Chambers, under the guidance of the
director, Postgraduate Programs. The research program is administered by the
Research Office at the Clayton campus, under the guidance of the associate dean
(research).
The faculty also houses its research centres at the Clayton campus, including
the Castan Centre for Human Rights Law, the Centre for Law in the Digital
Economy, the Centre for the Study of Privatisation and Public Accountability
and the International Institute of Forensic Studies.
