The Bachelor of Laws Bachelor of Creative Intelligence and Innovation is an innovative UTS degree with a focus on creating new value through transdisciplinary problem solving.
By combining these courses, students learn to solve complex challenges, work collaboratively across and between disciplines, and apply their conceptual and problem-solving expertise beyond traditional professional boundaries.
Both degrees are practice-oriented in their design. In the BCII, students use design processes to engage with industry experiences, real-world projects and self-initiated proposals. The law component of this degree offers fieldwork, leadership, mooting and mentoring opportunities, and meets the academic requirements for admission to practise law in NSW. Students can also enrol in the Legal Futures and Technology major, which provides a future-focused look at the technologies shaping the legal profession.
By the end of the course, students have the skills to engage in critical and creative thinking, invention, complexity, innovation, future scenario building and entrepreneurship, and the ability to work on their own across disciplines.
Graduates have the capacity to take a contemporary and solutions-focused approach to a career in law, or to use their legal expertise as a solid foundation for entrepreneurial, collaborative, strategic or analytical positions across a range of professional sectors.
