Division of Law
- Extending legal studies into legal research
The Faculty of Law curriculum was extensively restructured in 2010 to allow more time for the civil service entrance examination as well as case studies and real-life situations. The mission of the Graduate School of Law is to build on undergraduate legal studies in pursuing more in-depth legal research. Both stages of the doctoral program have a strong focus in on developing legal acumen through legal research, particularly the study of case methods. - Developing a practical approach to the law
The first stage of the doctoral program is designed to develop a practical approach to the law based on advanced expertise and logical thinking. The course is geared towards private sector careers such as licensed tax accountant and legal consultant. The second stage of the doctoral program has a stronger research focus and leads to specialization in advanced areas of the law.
