Master of Laws (Research)

The Master of Laws offers postgraduate research supervision on a smaller scale than the PhD.

The School of Law has recognised research strengths in:

• Taxation, corporate and commercial law

• Workplace relations law

• Sports law

• Human rights law

• Native title and Indigenous people’s law

• Medical law and ethics.

Many of the academic staff have national and international reputations in these fields, and supervision at either level is available on both JCU’s Townsville and Cairns campuses.

The School provides an excellent atmosphere for research students, with academic staff easily accessible and good support available. Research students have opportunities to tutor within the undergraduate program, providing valuable experience for those wishing to pursue academic careers.
