Industry Careers
The Industry Careers portfolio operates to inform and educate the Deakin Law student cohort as to the array of legal opportunities and pathways that exist beyond the commercial law sphere. In 2025, the Industry Careers portfolio aims to provide students with various experiences and practical opportunities, through collaboration with pivotal members of industry-based firms and offices. These opportunities seek to assist members of the student cohort who are interested in pursuing their legal careers within practice areas, such as crime, personal injury, government, family, and more.​
