Program Overview


There is virtually no area of world politics in which international law does not play a role and international law cannot be fully understood without an appreciation of the political context in which it operates.

The Graduate Diploma of International Law and International Relations is a joint program offered by the Law School and School of Politics and International Relations in the Faculty of Arts. Through depth of study and research opportunities, this program provides those with an interest in careers in International Law and International Relations both a strong theoretical and practical understanding of the complexities of the relationship between the international legal system and international politics.

Candidates for entry must have been awarded a Bachelors degree in law, the social sciences or humanities with performance at a credit level. Work experience will be taken into consideration for admission purposes where a candidate can demonstrate at least eight years experience in the area of expertise. The program does not lead to professional qualification for legal practice.


Program Structure




Students must complete four single session courses (8uoc), or the equivalent, to a total of 32uoc in order to complete the requirements for the degree.

The GDILIR can be taken in either full time or part time mode and will take between two to four sessions to complete.

The following two core courses (total 16uoc) must be completed before, or be taken concurrently with, non-core courses.

Principles of International Law (8uoc)
The Politics of International law (8uoc)

On completion of the compulsory law component, students may design individual study plans to best suit their needs. However, to meet course requirements, 50% of the courses must be taken from appropriate courses with the POLS prefix and 50% must be taken from appropriate courses with the LAWS prefix. Therefore, (inclusive of the two core courses) subjects with the POLS prefix must comprise 16uoc and subjects with the LAWS prefix must comprise 16uoc to total the 32uoc required for the completion of the degree.
