Why Postgraduate Law?

Not all law degrees are the same. Here's how UTS Law will help you stand out from the crowd.

Reasons to study postgraduate Law at UTS

Study with the elite

UTS Law is highly ranked:

Expert academics

What you learn and who you learn from, makes a big difference. 

Our teaching team is comprised of professional and academic leaders with expertise across all facets of legal practice and research. They'll help you build your theoretical knowledge, skills, practical capabilities, and professional confidence - essential tools for a legal career. 

Flexible study options

Study how you want, when you want. We offer full-time or part-time study, daytime or evening lectures for core subjects, online and block study for selected electives and intensive summer sessions to help you juggle study, work and life. 

Many of our lectures are recorded, so if you miss a class, you can catch up in your own time. 

Facilities and location

Based in the Haymarket Campus, UTS Law is in close proximity to everything you need (the CBD, law firms, barristers' chambers; the courts and other businesses; trains and buses; and great places to eat and drink), and it's been designed with your needs in mind - think state-of-the-art study spaces, technology-enabled meeting rooms, a dedicated law librarian and simulated court facilities, to name a few.  

In our new home at UTS Central, we've dedicated study hubs to our postgraduate students. Study amongst your classmates and create your own study hub. 

Industry connected

Our close links with the profession, industry and community are also facilitated through our Centres, Institute, and Law Advisory Board, all of which are pivotal to promoting our strategic initiatives in existing and emerging fields.

UTS Law is home to acclaimed research centres:

There's a wealth of students-centred initiatives on offer too - join the Brennan Justice and Leadership Program, undertake applied human rights fieldwork overseas or participate in local and international internships.

Acknowledgement of Country

UTS acknowledges the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation, the Boorooberongal people of the Dharug Nation, the Bidiagal people and the Gamaygal people, upon whose ancestral lands our university stands. We would also like to pay respect to the Elders both past and present, acknowledging them as the traditional custodians of knowledge for these lands.
