<p>Law graduates may find work either in areas where a law degree is a professional requirement or more general fields in which law is especially useful. A Bachelor of Laws would normally be a requirement for the following occupations: a Barrister or Solicitor in professional practice; a Legal Officer in government departments or private enterprise; a Corporate Legal Officer in private industry, commerce and finance; community legal work; law teaching and academic research; a Judge's Associate, and legal journalism. To practice as a Barrister or Solicitor graduates must complete professional training such as the Graduate Diploma in Legal Practice at ANU. More general fields of employment include: the Australian Foreign Service; industrial relations; social welfare; government administration; business management; lobbying; media; public relations; law librarianship; court reporting; environmental agencies; technology and communications; and Federal and State police forces.</p>

<p>The normal time for completion of a combined program with law is five years for full-time pass students. The length of the combined program makes part-time study inadvisable and the two faculties will examine such applications carefully. The program is structured so that a full-time student will normally complete the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Information Technology after fours years study and the degree of Bachelor of Laws one year later. </p>
