The field of science is continuously evolving, with areas such as genetics, biotechnology, public health and safety underpinned by a rigorous legal framework. Designed to be completed over 5.25 years of full-time study, the combined Bachelor of LawsBachelor of Science is perfect if you wish to combine your love of the law with your passion for science. When you undertake the legal component of your degree, you will receive an education plan in collaboration with some of Australia’s top judges, barristers and solicitors. A focus on experiential learning also means that you have multiple opportunities to develop valuable skills such as public speaking, advocacy, dispute resolution and mooting. The scientific elements of your double degree are equally practical. Over your studies, you will complete five core Science courses and seven courses to form a Science stream in Biology & Environment, Environment & Heritage, Human & Medical Science or Multidisciplinary Science. You will then undertake a Science Internship in your third year to develop your skills in data analysis and research. Held over six weeks, this industry placement assigns you to a government department or private organisation in Western Australia, nationally or internationally, where you are expected to apply the expertise you have gained so far. See Bachelor of Science for more details. As a graduate of the Bachelor of LawsBachelor of Science, you will gain a sound practical and theoretical understanding of both scientific and legal disciplines.
