Bachelor of Economics/Bachelor of Laws BEc/LLB

Course code: 0091

Students enrolled for the combined course will normally qualify for the Bachelor of Economics degree at the end of three years, and the Bachelor of Laws at the end of the fifth year. To do so, students must complete the requirements of the Bachelor of Economics degree, including in it a major sequence in law comprising LAW1100 (Legal process), LAW3300 (Criminal law), LAW2100 (Contract), LAW2200 (Torts) and one third-year law subject, usually LAW3400 (Property). Students would then follow for the next two years a program comprising the compulsory subjects LAW3200 (Constitutional law), LAW3100 (Administrative law) and LAW5500 (Moot court), and optional law subjects which total 180 value units. Students should refer to the Faculty of Law handbook for details of these subjects. It should be noted that for the purposes of the economics degree, each law subject previously mentioned is equivalent to two subjects from the Faculty of Business and Economics (Clayton), that is, twelve points. The course structure is shown in chart 8 in section `Charts of degree structures'.

Students should note that it is possible to take a small number of subjects from a faculty other than Business and Economics or Law.
