Where a UOW Law Degree Can Take You...

A UOW law degree can take you anywhere.

You’ll hear this a lot at UOW, but you might like to see some evidence. I’m glad to welcome you on behalf of the UOW Faculty of Law and invite you to take a look at our brochure and explore the reasons why UOW is a great place to study law.

At UOW there is much more to studying law than simply learning legal theory and rules. One of our aims has always been to have graduates known for what we call ‘real world readiness’. You will have a very sound skills base and you will also be a flexible, analytical thinker who is sensitive to the human side of the law.

Our unique approach to legal education will provide you with a critical and questioning attitude, broad perspectives and the skills and knowledge required for whatever career you may choose.

A UOW law degree is a passport to a diverse range of career options. We’re proud of the way our degree successfully equips students with the skills and qualities to take on the world. You’ll find that our graduates aren’t only lawyers: they’re diplomats, politicians, advisers, consultants, project managers, academics and researchers.

So when we get asked ‘where will a UOW law degree take me?’ the simple answer is: anywhere! How do we know? We asked our graduates - here are some of their stories.
