Graduate Certificate
This course gives non-law graduates an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks of their professional fields.
Students come from a wide variety of professional backgrounds, such as insurance, human resources, banking, finance and education, and work in roles where knowledge of the legal landscape is critical to their work. Course content includes foundations of law, contract and tort law.
This course particularly benefits accountants and auditors, business development managers, compliance managers, engineers and architects, financial advisers and planners, IT professionals, law enforcement officers, paralegals, policy officers in the public, private and non-profit sectors, property developers and public sector managers and administrators (especially those who work in Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, the Attorney-General's Department and Treasury).
The course requires completion of three core subjects, which includes an introductory subject (8 credit points) and two other foundation subjects (16 credit points).
Core subjects are timetabled in Autumn and Spring sessions and timetabled subjects are offered subject to sufficient student interest. The UTS Timetable Planner enables current and future UTS students to view subject timetables.
