Bachelor Programme
Laws
The UTS Bachelor of Laws is a four-year undergraduate law degree that covers law foundations, ethics and justice, constitutional law and procedure, then lets students specialise through electives such as environmental law, law and technology, commercial law and human rights. Students can add a Legal Futures and Technology major and take UTS's optional Practical Legal Training subjects. With that training, the course meets the requirements for admission as a lawyer in NSW. Graduates work as lawyers, legal and policy advisers, legislative drafters and mediators across government, business and community organisations.
