Programme Introduction
Pursue a career in business and law
Jointly offered by the HKU Business School and the Faculty of Law, our Bachelor of Business Administration (Law) (BBA[Law]) and Bachelor of Laws (LLB) integrate courses to equip you with professional knowledge and intensive training in the fields of business and law. The double degree programme is an excellent choice if you are looking for a broad-based education and flexibility in your career choices.
2 degrees, 5 years
Study across the fields of business and law to earn two degrees.
Professional opportunities
Establish a solid foundation in both business and law and enjoy flexible career choices.
The programme blends two strategic disciplines into a single course. Over five years, you will earn a BBA(Law) from the HKU Business School and an LLB from the Faculty of Law. Your LLB degree is the basic requirement to pursue a legal career and the first step towards entry to a Postgraduate Certificate in Laws (PCLL) programme.
The BBA(Law)&LLB programme with a professional core in accounting is accredited as an approved programme under the Qualification Programme (QP) of the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (HKICPA).
You will be eligible for direct entry to the QP provided all pre-entry requirements have been met. You will also be exempted from the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) foundation level exam to complete further non-exempted papers at the professional level and earn your ACCA membership.
Alternatively, non-local students can pursue an associate membership of CPA Australia, provided you meet the requirements, and advance to CPA status as stipulated by the institute.
In addition, students of the BBA(Law)&LLB programme are eligible to enrol in the CGMA® Finance Leadership Program and kickstart their journey to become a member of Chartered Institute of Management Accountants and a Chartered Global Management Accountant while they are studying in the University.
The BBA(Law)&LLB programme paves the way for a career in the legal, accounting, investment banking, and corporate finance fields. Graduates have gone on to accept positions in well-respected local and global organisations, including Accenture, BlackRock, Blackstone, Citigroup, Clifford Chance, Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu, Ernst & Young, Goldman Sachs, Hang Lung Properties, HSBC, JPMorgan, Morgan Stanley, Oliver Wyman, PWC, Protiviti, among many others.
