The Master of Laws by Research is a thesis-based research degree. You will work with a supervisor from the School's academic staff to develop an appropriate topic within the areas of research focus for the School. The program is individually designed and built around the research and the topic to be investigated. A thesis submitted for a Master of Laws is expected to be systematic, written presentation of the results of study, investigation and research which makes a substantial contribution to the body of knowledge of the law in the relevant area.
A Master of Laws by Research provides an opportunity for applicants to advance their knowledge and skill in law, and to specialise in specific areas of law, that may advance career opportunities in fields including law, business, government and public administration, media and the not-for-profit sector.
The Master of Laws by Research consists exclusively of a research thesis.
