Courses and Programs
The Griffith Law School provides an interdisciplinary legal education. Undergraduate degrees are generally taught as combined degrees with other disciplines within the university; however, the option to do a stand-alone (LLB only) law degree is also available.
Undergraduate (including graduate-entry LLB) degree programs are taught from the Nathan and Gold Coast campuses. Postgraduate research programs (PhD and MPhil) are oriented toward the investigation of law in theoretical and socio-legal context; these programs also are taught at the Nathan or Gold Coast campuses.
The law school has a diverse range of clinical opportunities ensuring that students graduate with practical legal skills. These include the Griffith University Innocence Project and Semester-In-Practice. In addition, the Practical Legal Training course is taught at Brisbane's Southbank campus.

Famous quotes containing the words courses and/or programs:
“The inconveniences and horrors of the pox are perfectly well known to every one; but still the disease flourishes and spreads. Several million people were killed in a recent war and half the world ruined; but we all busily go on in courses that make another event of the same sort inevitable. Experientia docet? Experientia doesn’t.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
“Short of a wholesale reform of college athletics—a complete breakdown of the whole system that is now focused on money and power—the women’s programs are just as doomed as the men’s are to move further and further away from the academic mission of their colleges.... We have to decide if that’s the kind of success for women’s sports that we want.”
—Christine H. B. Grant, U.S. university athletic director. As quoted in the Chronicle of Higher Education, p. A42 (May 12, 1993)
