A career in law can be intellectually challenging, personally fulfilling, and financially rewarding. Learning from Assistant Professor Dr Matthew Raj, Faculty of Law academic and Founder and Director of the Bond Criminal Law Clinic, you will be immersed in the study of criminal law throughout this course.
Gain practical insight into the exciting world of criminal law, including going to court, criminal offences, criminal defences, and the powers relied upon by police.
Students will participate in practical group work preparing advice, and refining their writing skills and oral presentation skills by preparing submissions in a moot court.
This course is delivered via five online modules:
- Introduction to Criminal Law
- Police Powers
- Going to Court
- Criminal Offences
- Defences
Students will also complete a two-day practical workshop where they will brief a partner of a criminal firm by preparing written submissions on chosen topics (taken from the learnings of the online modules), and preparing submissions on sentence in a moot court.
