Program Overview

Do you believe that all people should have the right to access education, health, justice and opportunities to succeed? This is a concept known as social justice; it is based on a framework of human rights – and it’s what inspires many of our Law students to get the skills and knowledge they need to go out and stand up for the rights of others.

In this degree, you’ll have the opportunity to take a hands-on approach to the law and develop strong real-life legal skills through our clinical program with partners such as SCALES Community Legal Centre. In this program, you will work on real cases with real clients and get new insight into the legal system. You can also further develop your reasoning skills in our internationally recognised mooting program. Mooting is a simulated court proceeding where you will be presented with a legal problem and argue it before a 'judge' in our purpose-built courtroom.

You can complete this degree in just four years or sooner by taking advantage of our summer and winter intensive schedule. Students who meet academic requirements will be able to graduate with Honours.

3 reasons to study Law at Murdoch

  • Earn credit towards your degree with hands-on legal training in our award-winning clinic working with real clients in areas such as human rights, family law and indigenous issues.
  • Join Murdoch Law School's successful mooting program, competing in a range of competitions where you will develop your practical legal skills.
  • Complete your PLT (practical legal training) on campus thanks to our partnerships with Leo Cussen and the College of Law. You’ll have the unique opportunity to complete your PLT while still studying if you have no more than 2 outstanding electives left to complete. Your PLT is the last step needed to become a practising lawyer, once you have completed your degree. This means at Murdoch you can get out into the field and start practising faster.
