COURSE VIDEO Meet Our Industry Experts 2:21 One of Sydney Law School’s key strengths, the Jurisprudence program comprises the teaching of legal theory, with a focus on the philosophical and sociological aspects of law. The Master of Jurisprudence (MJur) is an interdisciplinary program that caters for students who are interested in the principles and operations of legal systems or interdisciplinary research methodology.
The course is designed to expose students to the importance of legal theory in its broad sense, which includes philosophical reflection, sociological theory and comparative enquiry.
Participants come from a wide range of backgrounds, including: law students who want to specialise in legal theory and comparative studies of law; students from other disciplines, including teachers of legal studies courses in secondary education, who require a systematic introduction to and a comprehensive understanding of the operation of law; and international students from all disciplines who want to use their studies in Sydney to gain an overview of the principles and operations of legal systems.
