Step 1: Selecting law courses to study at ANU
You must nominate courses to study prior to your arrival at ANU - please refer to the information provided to you by ANU Global Programs about how to nominate courses and the relevant deadlines. If you need to change your law course selection after you have arrived at ANU, please email us at enquiries.law@anu.edu.au.
You must undertake Foundations of Australian Law, unless this course is not approved by your home institution or you are taking only international law courses. Students undertaking a law degree in one of the following common-law jurisdictions, and that normally leads to admission to practice, may be exempt from this requirement: Canada, Hong Kong, India, Ireland, Malaysia, New Zealand, Singapore, and United Kingdom. You may select courses only from the list below for the level of your degree program. If you are unsure, please do not hesitate to contact us via email. Internship, clinical, practicum and mooting courses are not available to exchange students, and students in Australia for a semester on a subclass 500 student visa may enrol in a maximum of one online course.

Some of the above courses require you to complete certain courses prior to enrolling In them; these are called pre-requisites. You can still enrol in courses that have pre-requisites. However, please note that courses will be delivered in a way that it is assumed that you have the basic knowledge of the course/s listed as pre-requisites. If you haven't completed similar pre-requisite courses at your home institution, please note that it might not be possible to complete the course without doing extra reading in order to fill in the gaps in knowledge. The course convenor will assist you with recommendations should extra reading be required.
To find out if a course has a pre-requisite, Go to course search and find the course/s you are interested in. Click on the course code to access the relevant course page. Click on the Study tab and scroll down to the Requisite and Incompatibility section.
