Notes
The study of law develops problem-solving skills and powers of analysis. It teaches precise and imaginative use of language. It also promotes ethical thinking and a focus on justice and fairness. It enhances students' thinking, reasoning and expressive abilities within legal and related contexts, leading to employment in the legal profession, law reform agencies, government service or other relevant areas of employment.
The Bachelor of Commerce provides a professional education in a range of units related to commerce disciplines, with a strong emphasis on developing the analytical skills and professional competence required for careers in the business or public sector.
The objectives of the Bachelor of Laws (LLB) program at Monash are to enable students to gain an understanding of basic legal concepts and legal institutions and of the historical, social, political and economic factors influencing their development. Upon completion of the LLB, students will be able to identify, use and evaluate the concepts, principles, rules and methods used in legal argument and will have developed oral and written skills, especially of legal argument, legal research and critical analysis. Students will have gained an understanding of concepts of justice, a concern to promote justice and an appreciation of their professional responsibilities.
The Bachelor of Commerce graduates will:
(a.) be able to construct conceptual frameworks and use these to analyse complex issues in the corporate sector, government and the professions
(b.) be critical and creative scholars who:
(c.) be responsible and effective global citizens who:
(d.) have a comprehensive understanding of their discipline and be able to provide discipline-based solutions to business problems.
Students should note that a domestic applicant applying for admission to practise law in Victoria is required by the Admission Rules 2008 to provide to the Board of Examiners:
(1.) a report from the University disclosing any disciplinary action taken against the student during the course (including any finding under the University Discipline Statute that the student has cheated in an assessment); and
(2.) an affidavit stating that the applicant has made full written disclosure of "every matter which a reasonable applicant would consider that the Board of Examiners might regard as not being favourable to the applicant". This may include an incident of academic or general misconduct, even if it did not lead to disciplinary action.
The Board of Examiners will consider these matters in assessing whether the applicant is a "fit and proper person to be admitted to the legal profession".
The Law component of this degree is recognised by the Council of Legal Education (CoLE). For further information refer to: http://www.monash.edu.au/pubs/handbooks/undergrad/law-03.html
