Bachelor of Arts (Media and Communications) and Bachelor of Laws

Unit of Study information on faculty page

In this six year degree, candidates spend the first three years undertaking a combination of media and communications and law units of study to the value of 48 credit points each year. In the fourth year, you will undertake units of study in media and communications only, completing an internship placement and project, and a major in an arts and social sciences subject area of your choice. It is important to plan a major in first year because most second year units of study, which allow students to specialise in an area of interest, have junior unit of study pre-requisites. In the fifth year, you will study a fixed curriculum, comprising units of study in a range of areas of law including administrative law, federal constitutional law, and property and commercial law. The sixth year will allow you to choose elective units of study from the Sydney Law School so that you can sample specialisations in a particular area of the law.
