About Foundation Studies Program (Standard) - Law (X0F:3) (0100808) + Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Laws - Criminology (93A) (102979C)
Program Description
Foundation Studies Program (Standard) - Law (X0F:3) (0100808):
The Foundation Studies program is a direct academic pathway to first-year undergraduate degree study, or an equivalent. The program acts as a bridging course for international students who wish to study a university undergraduate degree course but who don’t yet meet academic requirements and/or have the English language skills for tertiary study.
To successfully complete the program, students must achieve a 50% pass in all units, including English.
Upon successful completion of the course, graduates can enter one of the University of Tasmania’s undergraduate degree courses.
Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Laws - Criminology (93A):
The double degree allows students to deepen their knowledge and expertise within two separate study areas. This means students can choose from University of Tasmania’s range of exciting, diverse courses and they can embark on a journey as unique as they are.
At the University of Tasmania, students will be part of an academic community that cares deeply about the topics that they teach and study.
Students will learn to influence cultural and social change, and students will gain the knowledge and creativity to envision better futures. Students will take on the world’s cultural, environmental, and humanitarian challenges from multiple perspectives and gain the confidence to make a positive difference. In first year, students will have the opportunity to visit Country with an Aboriginal Elder or knowledge holder as part of the University of Tasmania's curriculum's reflection of the value and place of Indigenous knowledges and perspectives.
The Bachelor of Arts will equip students with a range of specialised and transferable skills that are highly sought after by employers: creative thinking, respect for multiple perspectives, and the ability to work effectively in a team environment.
To study law is to understand the importance of social justice and using the law to improve the health of society and this planet. It is about developing high-level skills in legal techniques and a sensitivity to the way that those skills can be used to advance a range of interests. By learning to understand law as both a local and transnational affair, the commonalities amongst law and legal systems, as well as how context can shape laws and legal culture, students open doors to diverse careers in the practice of law in Australia and globally.
Students who choose to study law at the University of Tasmania, the journey is more extraordinary because the lines between study, research and professional practice often dissolve. Drawing on the University of Tasmania’s strong tradition of close engagement with the Tasmanian legal profession and their network of practitioner alumni, students will have opportunities to engage with the judiciary, senior practitioners, leaders from government and industry and key legal institutions from their first year.
The University of Tasmania’s island campus provides ideal opportunities to learn from world-leaders in Environmental, Antarctic, Marine and Climate Law. Their law school hosts the Tasmanian Law Reform Institute, enabling students to contribute to law reform, particularly in relation to criminal law. Students will also develop global perspectives on some of the great challenges in society - gene-editing and the legal regulation of biotechnology, the regulation of armed conflict and the prosecution of war crimes.
Crime is an issue that governments and communities face every day. Criminology is the study of crime, criminality and criminal justice systems; it focuses on criminalisation as a process, the causes of crime, the social context of offending, crime prevention, systems of social control, and the punishment and rehabilitation of offenders. In this major students will explore the meaning of justice and the best ways to respond to crime and criminality while debating the role of the media, the contribution of parliaments and what really happens at crime scenes and in court rooms. University of Tasmania’s case studies include examples from across the world as well as what happens in local communities. This program includes everything from cybercrime, murder and theft through to corruption and environmental crime. Over the course of this major students will come to understand the main features of criminology as an academic discipline and be able to apply criminological theories, concepts and evidence. They will learn to analyse the causes and responses to crime as well as critically evaluate explanations of crime at local, national and global levels. This major will provide the knowledge and skills to work in criminal justice agencies and develop initiatives and agendas for change. Some specific areas where students may find work include policing, crime prevention, corrections and policy research.
