Course structure
This is an on-campus degree but enables students to take some subjects online. It is available to law and non-law graduates. Students must complete eight subjects in total.
Students who do not have a law degree from a common law jurisdiction must complete the subject Fundamentals of the Common Law as well as seven subjects from the prescribed lists.
Students with a law degree from a common law jurisdiction must complete at least seven subjects from the prescribed lists and may choose an eighth subject from those available in the Melbourne Law Masters (excluding Fundamentals of the Common Law).
Students are able to take up to four subjects in the online Global Competition and Consumer Law Program, subject only to the avoidance of substantial overlap with the content of subjects completed in the on-campus program.
Please note that international students on a student visa may only take up to 25% of their course online.
Competition Law Overview
Melbourne Law School also offers a one-day seminar called Competition Law Overview, providing students with a basic grounding in the competition provisions of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth).
