Welcome to the Murdoch Student Law Society!


University can be a daunting experience, but it is also a time full of opportunity. While lectures, tutorials and assignments are important, to truly engage in your learning, you need to engage with your community. That’s where we come in – the MSLS is a team of dedicated volunteers ensuring Law and Criminology students at Murdoch have social outlets, opportunities for academic and professional development, and above all else a community they can rely on when the times get tough. 

We work hard throughout the year to bring you a broad range of competitions, parties, seminars and other initiatives designed to develop students as lawyers and people.

We always have something going on, so come down to the Law café and get involved!
