About this course

The Juris Doctor Master of Business Administration gives students exposure to theoretical learning and professional practice in the disciplines of law and business. It is an Australian Qualifications Framework Level 9 master's qualification that provides an alternative pathway to a legal career for graduates of disciplines other than law.

Students study industry informed, academically rigorous and highly practical law subjects, preparing them for a legal career or for roles in other sectors where legal expertise is of value. In the MBA, they combine the study of fundamental business concepts, such as accounting, economics, management and marketing, with a choice of major, sub-major or electives.

Upon graduation, students are effective, adaptable and ready to operate in a global legal or business environment. This course meets the academic requirements for admission to practise law in NSW. Practical legal training - the practical requirement for admission as a lawyer in NSW - can also be completed at UTS.
