The rapid expansion of the internet is effecting radical change to the business world through electronic commerce and to other areas of human activity by facilitating global information sharing. New legal regimes are evolving rapidly to meet the needs of these changes.
The Master of Digital Economy Law aims to keep participants abreast of the laws relating to electronic commerce and the internet. It draws from the strengths within the Law School in relation to electronic commerce and internet law.
The course comprises eight six-point units. Candidates must complete five units offered as part of the Master of Laws specialising in digital economy law. The remaining three units may be taken from any units offered in the masters coursework program. Alternatively, students can elect one of the following options:
A candidate with a degree in a discipline other than law or a
candidate with a law degree from a non-Australian jurisdiction will be required
to complete the unit LAW7212 (Australian legal system), unless an exemption is
granted.
To be eligible, candidates require a university degree in any discipline, or
equivalent qualification with significant work experience in the area of
specialisation.
