Master of Ethics and Legal Studies

Graduate Diploma of Ethics and Legal Studies
Graduate Certificate in Ethics and Legal Studies

What is this course about?

CSU's Ethics and Legal Studies program is an articulated set of courses in ethics and legal studies drawing on the diverse expertise within the Faculty of Arts.

It is designed to meet the demand for the study of ethics and legal studies across various vocations in a way that is broad in scope and provides specialist expertise particular professions require.

In addition to core subjects in ethics and in legal studies, students may select subjects in accordance with their particular needs and interests.

Subjects may be selected from a comprehensive, vocation-directed list of subjects dealing in ethical and legal issues offered by the many disciplines across the faculties. In the Graduate Diploma and Master courses, students may choose a vocationally-specific specialisation, thus gaining postgraduate expertise in ethics and legal studies that is highly specific to their particular profession.

Articulation and credit

The Master, Graduate Diploma and Graduate Certificate articulate fully and full credit is given in each higher level course for the subjects completed in the lower level course.

The student workload for some subjects may vary from these norms as a result of approved course design.
