Why study the Bachelors of Humanities / Laws (Honours)?

This dual degree allows you to combine studies in law with a Bachelor of Humanities (BHum) specialising in the study of Western Civilisation. The Bachelor of Laws (Honours) (LLB(Hons)) degree is your passport to success in the employment market: as a barrister or solicitor, prosecutor of crime, community lawyer, legal officer in public service, or in-house counsel for a large corporation. You will gain a thorough understanding of the concepts, principles, policies and values of the law both in Australia and other jurisdictions. It will also see you develop outstanding skills in critical analysis, thought and argument, which will be valuable in your chosen career. Your BHum studies will provide opportunities to immerse yourself in a creative and diverse curriculum with a strong critical focus on the key intellectual movements that have shaped Western Civilisation from antiquity to the current day. The BHum will equip you with knowledge and insights applicable to many of the problems that societies face today, and the collaborative and persuasive skills to bring about meaningful change.

Due to a staged rollout process, courses in Western Civilisation will be limited in 2020, increasing in 2021.
