The Deakin University School of Law operates at Geelong, Melbourne and Warrnambool campuses. It is part of Deakin University.
Deakin’s LLB degree has a strong commercial focus, with an international orientation, enabling Deakin law graduates to undertake legal work in a wide range of settings whether in Australia or abroad.
The Practical Legal Skills program equips graduates with the knowledge, skills and attributes to practice law while the Professional Work Experience requirement enriches their legal education. Deakin law graduates emerge with a broad technical competency, a specialisation in commercial law and an appreciation of how the law operates in practice.
Deakin Law School has been running an intensive winter semester program at China University of Political Science and Law for 13 years. This program is also open to students from other law schools around the country and is seen as a useful introduction to Chinese commercial law as Australia and China's trading relationship becomes closer.

—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
