The commercial law specialisation provides in-depth knowledge of a wide range of commercial law areas. Graduates from law and non-law disciplines have the opportunity to choose from an extensive range of units covering many diverse domestic and international topics.
For law graduates, the specialisation provides a springboard from which to launch or further a career in this increasingly complex and evolving area of law. For non-law graduates, it provides a formal course of training and specialisation for working in law-related fields such as accountancy, and taxation, banking and finance, and corporate regulation and management.
