About the course

The Bachelor of Laws/Bachelor of Philosophy, Politics and Economics is designed for those who want to understand human communities and society. This program involves studying two degrees in a combined fashion, finishing with two degrees in five years. The Bachelor of Laws degree (LLB) provides a gateway to a rewarding career in law and provides a strong foundation for other career opportunities too. This accredited degree will prepare you to work as a lawyer in private practice, government, corporate counsel or within a not-for-profit organisation. The Bachelor of Laws (LLB or LLB(Hons)) with a Bachelor of Politics, Philosophy, Economics (BPPE) combination is a unique qualification that will set you apart both domestically and internationally. You will have the opportunity to test your critical thinking skills in an enriching learning experience that offers great diversity in curriculum and application in everyday and professional settings. Notre Dame’s LLB program offered in combination with the BPPE program focuses on the importance of the flourishing human person and the principle of the common good within society.
