The Bachelor of Laws/Bachelor of Criminal Justice and Criminology is the only double degree of its kind in Victoria. Offering the unique combination of an accredited law degree with a specialised education in the causes of crime (Criminology) and the fallout of crime (Criminal Justice), this course arms students with the advanced skills to solve complex legal problems in an increasingly complex society. In this double degree, students will complete law-related professional experience placements at organisations in Australia or overseas. They will also be introduced to the practical aspects of legal practice through moot court scenarios and advocacy exercises. And in Crime, Society and Culture (LAW30025), students will team up with other students. This degree is ideal for those who want to specialise in criminal prosecution, criminal defence or government policy development.
