Course overview

ACU’s Bachelor of Human Rights is an exciting course that will assist in preparing you to be one of the leading human rights advocates of the 21st century. Human rights advocacy has never been more important. It’s a highly significant and swiftly growing field of research and practice within law, criminal justice, history, philosophy and politics. This new degree will enable you to emerge from your studies capable of evaluating the place of human rights in modern society, a vital skill as these ideas and practices become every-deeper embedded into corporate, government and non-government sectors.
