LPC and LLM in Australia


vdapp

Hi,
I've been trying to find out whether the LPC offered in the UK is the equivalent to the LLM in Australia...no luck.
I was wondering if I can take a LPC course in Australia with a LLB from the UK. What is the structure of the LLM program and how long will it take me to become a qualifying solicitor in Australia?

Thank you!

U will need to undertake Australian Constitutional Law (at the very least) to fulfill the academic requirements for admission into Australia.

Notwithstanding, you might be required to undertake a practical legal training program (graduate diploma in legal practice) offered by australian universities if you are unable to demonstrate that you have practice experience in 11-12 areas of the law :)
