Department of Law
Introduction
The Department of Law was established in 1980 and has produced many highly qualified graduates who work in a variety of fields. These include positions in central and local governments, the courts, law enforcement and public and private companies. As we live under the rule of law, majoring in law enables one to get a job as a certified practical specialist as well as to become a lawyer. The Department of Law provides a systematic law curriculum, with tailor made, individual guidance for career options (e.g. lawyer/pre-law, public service, law enforcement, public/private companies) for students to develop their potential and to prepare for their future as specialists.
