This course combines coursework subjects and completion of a thesis. Candidates develop their doctoral topic through the coursework component. The SJD is awarded to candidates who successfully complete their coursework and, through their thesis, make an original and distinct contribution to knowledge in their field of specialisation.
This program was the first professional doctorate of its kind in Australia. It counters the isolation experienced by many PhD candidates by providing a combination of postgraduate coursework subjects and a thesis, and allows candidates to benefit from contact with coursework students and UTS: Law academic staff. This degree is valuable for an academic or professional career.
