About the course
A BCom/LLB(Hons) conjoint allows you to complete a BCom and an LLB(Hons) in less time, and with fewer points, than it would take to complete the two degrees separately.
Our law programme will arm you with a skill set that meets the high demands of any legal career. You will develop knowledge of the law and its implications, analytical and research skills, social appreciation, public responsibility and communication skills.
During your BCom you will complete a set of core courses. These include an exciting two-course sequence in Business and Enterprise. These courses will introduce the types of choices facing entrepreneurs and managers and help you develop your academic and professional skills.
Your first-year core programme will provide a strong base from which to launch into your chosen major or majors. A double major will enable you to gain greater breadth and increase your career options by combining two sets of courses at advanced level.
To become a BCom/LLB Part I (first-year) student, you must first be accepted into the Bachelor of Commerce degree. Places in LLB Part II (second year) are limited, and all applicants must go through a selection process.
Entry requirements
Entry is by invitation for high-achieving Bachelor of Commerce / Bachelor of Laws (BCom/LLB) Part II students. To be considered for the Honours programme in Law, you must achieve a B+ average or higher across all your law courses at the completion of LLB Part II during your BCom/LLB. (This is usually at the end of your third year.)
