With the growth in scientific research and the commercialisation of new technologies, graduates with knowledge in both science and law are increasingly sought after. The Bachelor of Laws and Science double degree is the ideal stepping stone for a future-proof science career, combining practical legal skills and an awareness of the complexities between science and society.
In an age of increasing technological advancements, the link between science and the law will only become stronger. This means as a graduate with a double degree in science and law, you will have the power to choose a varied range of career pathways and the security needed to navigate an ever-changing workforce.
With a choice of twenty-five majors in science and a rich repertoire of law electives, the Bachelor of Laws and Science can be tailored to meet your individual interests. Choose from specialisations as varied as Applied mathematics to Zoology, providing a targeted pathway aligned with your specific aspirations.
This course leads to two separate degrees:
the Bachelor of Laws (Honours), and
the Bachelor of Science.
As a Bachelor of Laws and Science graduate, you will gain all the benefits of each degree and be fully equipped to pursue a career in either field separately or to combine the two in your chosen work.
Unlock the opportunity to work overseas
As both degrees are internationally recognised, you will have no problem applying for work abroad. Depending on your area of specialisation, you may go on to work in fields including the space industry, biotechnology, intellectual property, mining or forensic law.
Career outcomes
In Australia and worldwide, there is high demand for legal professionals with expertise in science as well as scientists who are qualified in law.
The Bachelor of Laws and Science provides legal knowledge and skills that are highly advantageous in both law and science leadership positions. From law-makers dealing with climate change legislation to genetic modification and stem cell research to scientists navigating complex legal and political approval processes to further their research, the applications of law and science studies are far-reaching.
Some potential career outcomes that may result from a Bachelor of Laws and Science double degree include representing clients on cases related to land use, mining, climate change, and the environment; working as a legal advisor in the health and medicine sector; or protecting the Intellectual Property on new life-saving drugs.
