The University of New England offers a flexible approach to the study of law. UNE boasts one of Australia's largest law schools outside a capital city, as well as being an early adopter of innovative technology in the delivery of its law programs. The Bachelor of Laws is accredited by the Legal Profession Admission Board of NSW for admission as a legal practitioner in NSW and mutual recognition legislation extends admission to other Australian jurisdictions.

Studying law in conjunction with another discipline gives students the potential to take an interdisciplinary approach in both their studies and in their future employment.

Graduates with a law and environmental science background will understand both the legal requirements and principles that prioritize conservation and sustainability of natural resources.

At the completion of the five years you will have a range of employment options from which to choose within the law profession. Careers may also include commercial industry and government departments; environmental protection agencies; national policy departments, conservation groups, consultancies; and also research careers.
