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. Youll 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. The unique Master of Public and Social Policy - with its dual focus on policy analysis and applied social research - will give you a deep understanding of the forces that shape policy and the processes involved in making it. Youll develop advanced skills in critical analysis to help you design and deliver effective policy solutions that serve the public interest, as well as the confidence to make socially informed judgements in a range of specialist policy areas.
