CQUniversity became a pioneer in law education in 2012 by providing its Bachelor of Laws as an online degree, in order encourage a wider diversity of students into the profession.  

The flexible nature of the degree and the fact it can be completed in only three years makes it especially attractive to adult students.

Head of Program Professor Stephen Colbran says the CQUniversity program is 'state-of-the-art'.

"We are cloud-based with staff across three states," he says.

"Our students are primarily mature-aged, living in rural and regional areas, with a fair number also in capital cities and overseas.

"We believe in open access, mobile learning and high quality materials."
