Law works across all industries and businesses. Adding a business degree to your law qualification will help you develop an in-depth understanding of business strategy, management, analytics and many other areas. You'll gain a broader understanding of private and public corporations and their legal implications, giving you a competitive advantage in your career.
For example, if you combine a Bachelor of Laws (LLB) and a Bachelor of Business with a major in Accounting, you could gain a qualification that allows you to be a practising lawyer or an accountant and have an in-depth understanding of both fields. You could also combine your knowledge of the two areas and become an investment lawyer.
Majors that you can study in the Bachelor of Business include Accounting, Business Law, Finance, Hospitality and Tourism Management, Human Resources Management, Management, and Marketing.
