Welcome to the University of Wollongong Law Students’ Society
Our Law Students’ Society prides itself on its deep commitment to social justice and this drives the work that we do; we are the largest club at UOW. We are committed to adding value to your law degree and enhancing your educational, vocational and social experience during your time at law school; we are here to create the best and most enriching law student experience that we can for you. We understand that law school can be scary but it also can be so rewarding, we want to enrich your experience and add to your university years.
Please take a look around our website to learn about us, and the activities that we organise. We seek to provide a wealth of opportunity to you – our members – and have a positive and meaningful impact on our University community and in the communities that support our campuses.
You have the opportunity to be part of something great. I encourage you all to embrace it, get involved and take advantage of the opportunities that come your way.
Be bold. Be fearless. Be a UOW Law Student.
It is my honour to welcome you here as a law student at the University of Wollongong; you are either about to join a cohort of 350 people starting their journey as a first-year law students at UOW or already part of our talented pool of almost 2000 law students studying at UOW. When you graduate you will join thousands of UOW Law alumni who have gone on to pursue outstanding careers locally, nationally and internationally.
At the University of Wollongong, we learn not only about the law, but also about the real-world application of the law. Our School of Law is committed to teaching excellence and engaging students in a practical, intellectually stimulating and satisfying experience, that prepares you for life after university.
