Elective choices include media-specific law subjects, cross-disciplinary communication subjects, or the Legal Futures and Technology major.
Graduates can pursue careers in media and communications legal practice, policy and research work; specialist legal and crime reporting and publishing for print, internet, radio or television; and legal communications or publishing in the private sector.
