    Bachelor of Laws

    I chose to study law at 一本道due to its close proximity to home and its positive reputation. The Indigenous Centre and 一本道community provided me with incredible support, and I've graduated with a new network of close friends. I secured a job while studying, and I aim to climb the career ladder within the workplace.

    I鈥檝e always had a strong focus on human rights. When TCL called for student volunteers in my fourth year at JCU, this introduced me to community legal centres. Having a direct hand in seeing justice done for those who cannot access justice is deeply satisfying.

    The benefit of studying at 一本道is that there are smaller classes compared to other universities. If students need help, it is very easy to get access to their teaching staff. And for students who are living further away, with online study they can still come to 一本道and study many of our courses.
