From Case Studies to Case Files: How UOW Malaysia Law Students Gain Practical Legal Skills Before They Graduate


Law is one of the oldest and most respected fields of study—and today, it’s more dynamic than ever. If you’re thinking about pursuing a law degree in Malaysia with aspirations to defend the innocent, shape public policy, or provide advice in the corporate world, you’ve come to the right place. At UOW Malaysia, we believe success in law goes beyond memorising legal jargon—it requires real-world experience, practical training, and strong industry connections. Let’s explore how UOW Malaysia’s Law School equips you for a future in law and beyond.

 

World-class Credentials That Matter

University of London, the esteemed partner institution for UOW Malaysia's internationally recognized LLB degree.

Our law school is partnered with the prestigious University of London—one of the UK’s oldest and most respected institutions. As a recognised Affiliate Centre, UOW Malaysia offers the internationally recognised LLB degree, the only external law program approved by the Legal Profession Qualifying Board of Malaysia.

The impact of this strong academic and professional foundation is clear in the achievements of our students. A great example of this is The Hotshot Series: The Legal Line—a guidebook co-authored by our law graduates Kenneth Chung, Andreanna Ten, and New Su Ann while they were still students. Published by LexisNexis and launched by a Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department, the book offers real-world insights from judges, litigators, and industry experts. It’s proof that our law students are not just academically capable but also equipped and inspired to contribute meaningfully to the profession.

Yet, it’s not just about prestige and accolades—what truly sets UOW Malaysia’s Law School apart is how we prepare you for the real world. Here, you’ll study law in an engaging and supportive environment, where small class sizes foster deeper participation and closer interaction with your lecturers. Our faculty also provides personalised academic guidance to ensure every student feels supported, both academically and personally throughout their journey.

  • Mock trials that simulate courtroom proceedings
  • Legal research projects that hone your analytical skills
  • Guest talks by practicing lawyers, judges, and legal professionals
