About this course

What will I learn?

The Master of Criminology will develop your skills in advanced criminology theory, applied criminological research and criminal justice policy analysis. As a graduate, you’ll use your knowledge and draw from fields including sociology, psychology, psychiatry and social anthropology, to understand better, measure and evaluate crime.The Master of Laws will simultaneously extend your legal research, and your practical legal skills and knowledge to an advanced level. It offers you the flexibility to focus on a particular area of law, such as environmental law, international law, human rights law or business law, or to choose a broader program of study covering a variety of legal areas. You’ll gain the skills to think critically and respond flexibly by applying your research and practical skills to the wide range of potential issues you may confront in your career.
