University of Notre Dame Australia - Law School

Law School

The Notre Dame law school has grown from strength to strength from its humble beginnings in the late 90s. The law school now takes part in the prestigious ALSA competitions and the AAT Mooting Competitions as well as the International Maritime Moot competition. For the past two years, the Law school has recorded great success; often finishing in the Top 5.

The law school is also known for its strength in ensuring all students complete a 'moot' unit (known as Advocacy). It is generally expected that law students require at least some moot experience prior to graduating. The law school excels in this area in providing a quality unit for all penultimate year students to moot in front of retired Chief Justice David Malcolm Q.C.

Notre Dame Law School Society also provides a number of competitions throughout the year which consists of:

  • Senior Mooting Competition
  • Junior Mooting Competition
  • Negotiations
  • Client Interview
  • AAT Moot

Famous quotes containing the words law and/or school:

    “If the law supposes that,” said Mr. Bumble, squeezing his hat emphatically in both hands, “the law is a ass—a idiot. If that’s the eye of the law, the law is a bachelor; and the worst I wish the law is, that his eye may be opened by experience—by experience.”
    Charles Dickens (1812–1870)

    A monarch, when good, is entitled to the consideration which we accord to a pirate who keeps Sunday School between crimes; when bad, he is entitled to none at all.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
