1. Are you ready for a global career?

Contemporary legal practice is no longer limited to the local.

Lawyers now practice in a global context: across jurisdictions, in diverse cultural environments and often mediated by digital technologies.

Against this context this new unit (LAW4250, offered over Summer 2016-17) provides the foundation from which law graduates might take advantage of the increasing opportunities in global legal practice.

Please see here for more details.
