This qualification develops key disciplinary knowledge in a fine arts major that can be applied through students’ law studies and future careers. The fine arts component incorporates studio and/or project-based practice and aims to produce graduates who are the creators of original content for the creative industries. The law component has a practical focus that further equips graduates for a range of careers. You develop advanced legal research and writing skills, critical analysis and skills in interviewing, advocacy and dispute resolution. The course covers all academic subjects required for admission to legal practice. Fine arts subjects are taken in conjunction with law subjects throughout the first four years of the course, with law subjects only in the final semesters.
