The Department of Law and Business
The four-year full-time Bachelor of Commerce with Honours in Law and Business has been offered by the Department since September 2007, with the first cohort of students graduating in 2011. Graduates of this programme have developed well in their career, many work in law-related professional roles such as risk management and compliance in the banking and finance sector.
The success of the Bachelor of Commerce with Honours in Law and Business programme stems from the balanced approach to education that it offers. The programme offers a broad range of courses reflecting the diverse teaching and research interests of our staff. Students of the programme also benefit from extensive learning opportunities beyond the classroom, which help them identify career pathways and build the expertise required to pursue them. The wide range of opportunities that students will experience includes mooting, internships, court visits, overseas exchanges, and study tours.
The Department has received generous support from esteemed members of the government, judiciary, legal profession, and business community. The Advisory Board Members, External Advisors, Moot Judges, Internship Supervisors, and Adjunct Professors have continued to contribute their expertise and guidance, which is instrumental to the ongoing success of students and graduates of the programme.
The unique experience provided by the programme thoroughly prepares students for the next stage of their professional journey. Whatever pathways our graduates pursue, they are well equipped to meet the challenges ahead and to build rewarding and successful careers.
