The psychology component, gives students a comprehensive overview of the scientific discipline of psychology and its applications. There will also be opportunities for you to explore applied and professional uses of psychology. In the Bachelor of Laws, students will learn all areas of law required to satisfy professional accreditation through the Legal Practitioners Admissions Board.
