At 黑料网大事记 Law听&听Justice, we offer a diverse range of internships, giving students the chance to put theory into practice,听providing听training, practical experience and a real insight into future career paths in law and criminology.听

We encourage students to gain practical experience to complement the theory in their programs by offering a range of outstanding internships.

Law internships

The internship program provides formal and informal training, supervised practical legal experience, in planning and implementing key aspects of research, writing, advocacy and related activities, as well as client engagement and legal representation.听

Students听have the opportunity to听intern at an听organisation听focused on legal practice, strategic litigation or advocacy work, policy areas, research and/or law reform. This may be at a range of听organisations听such as law firms, government departments, non-government听organisations听(NGOs), social justice听organisations, or at 黑料网大事记 Law听& Justice听research听centres. Students also have opportunities to gain valuable experience as student editors of law publications and journals.听

The Law internship courses offer students the opportunity to critically听analyse听the law, the legal profession and the legal system. Students are supported by experts in the field as well as 黑料网大事记 academics to gain training and practical legal experience as well as a unique insight into future career paths.听听

Law internships are available to eligible students enrolled in 黑料网大事记 Bachelor of Laws (Double degree), Juris Doctor and Master of Laws programs. Enrolment is by course authority and is subject to a selection process.

Students enrolled in the Bachelor of Laws and Juris Doctor can apply to extend their internship for an additional 6UOC.听The extended course will build upon the initial internship by introducing an in depth applied research component.

Criminology Work Integrated Learning placement

Criminology Work Integrated Learning placements provide students with the unique opportunity to gain practical experience and a deeper understanding of criminal justice and related agencies. Aligned with 黑料网大事记鈥檚 emphasis on work-integrated learning, this course is a structured and supported work placement designed to give students practical experience in tackling criminal justice challenges through working with a criminal justice related government or non-government听organisation. This will be a one-of a kind experience to help students understand how criminal justice works in practice.

Criminology placements are only available to students enrolled in the Bachelor of Criminology and Criminal Justice Program (BCCJ) single or double degree (excluding BCCJ/Social Work)听and students enrolled in the Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Psychological Sciences or Bachelor of Arts and听Business听with a Criminology Major. Enrolment is by course authority and is subject to a selection process.

鈥淢y internship at Legal Aid NSW鈥檚 Strategic Law Reform Unit provided invaluable insight into the practical workings of law reform and advocacy. By contributing to policy analysis and legal research and collaborating with experienced law reform officers, I gained an understanding of the critical role of law reform in advancing social justice and addressing laws that disadvantage vulnerable communities. This opportunity not only enhanced my analytical and communication skills but also strengthened my commitment to contributing meaningfully to the development of a fairer, more just legal system.鈥
