What will I learn?

The Law and the Creative Industries major equips you with specialised legal skills and knowledge to support your career in the creative industries in Australia. You will develop tailored, strategic knowledge to enable you to effectively contribute to business decision-making and to understand the legal and regulatory challenges within the context of creative and innovative enterprises. Your subjects will focus on the fundamentals of Australian law, critique and analysis of law, contracts, torts, alternative dispute resolution and media law, with the option to also incorporate studies in competition and consumer law, intellectual property and law within the employment context. This legal and regulatory focus will provide you with specialised knowledge and skills allowing access to a range of careers within the creative industries sector. This major does not qualify you for admission to legal practice in NSW. If you’re looking to pursue a career in legal practice you will need to apply for one of the relevant Bachelor of Laws programs.
