Our history, achievements and milestones

1964 - The Faculty of Law established



Today: Monash Law is one of the largest and most prestigious law schools in Australia providing legal education and training to over 2700 undergraduate and postgraduate students. Increasingly, law is seen as one of the most valuable generalist degrees, providing a solid foundation for a range of careers. As a result law graduates enjoy a higher rate of employment than graduates from almost every other discipline.

The faculty's expert teaching staff contribute a mix of specialist knowledge and international experience. Nine current staff members have won the Monash Vice-Chancellor's Award for Distinguished Teaching, more than any other faculty in the University. The faculty also draws on the expertise of industry professionals and international guest lecturers to ensure its programs remain relevant in a changing global climate.
