The course is delivered at Gardens Point and is designed for students seeking capabilities spanning health and legal contexts in a Bachelor Degree / Honours Degree in law and biomedical science. The programme builds legal reasoning, case analysis, and professional ethics for legal practice and public service pathways.

Career outcome

Graduates can pursue pathways across legal practice and health-related sectors, supported by an accredited law qualification that meets academic requirements for admission to practise (with subsequent practical legal training). The biomedical science component supports roles connected to medical research and laboratory-based science, and can complement legal careers in health regulation, policy, compliance or medico-legal areas.
