One: What is JD?
Doctor of Law (JD or Juris Doctor) generally refers to the law degree provided by all law schools in the United States or some law schools in Australia, Canada and Hong Kong. It is a degree in law education and also translated into a doctor of law and a doctor of law.
Two: Why choose Australia:
Generally speaking, American JD is the first choice for most China students to apply. However, in recent years, many China students have turned their attention to JD in Australia. So what are the advantages of JD in Australia compared with JD degrees in other countries?
Compared with the high tuition in the United States, studying JD in Australia saves a lot on the whole. (JD tuition in most law schools in Australia is 400 million Australian dollars a year, and some law schools even allow law students to complete JD degrees in two to two and a half years. In addition, the JD admission requirements of Australian law schools are lower than those of the United States, and JD of some Australian law schools can take the Bar in the United States.
In this way, the JD degree in Australia is undoubtedly a cost-effective choice. Compared with Canada, which is also a big immigrant country, Australia has a comfortable climate and a short winter. In addition to heavy studies, it can also enjoy natural scenery such as sunshine and beaches. In addition, Canada's legal market is relatively small and saturated, making it difficult to stay in the workplace.
Relatively speaking, the Australian Immigration Bureau gives more immigration places to legal professionals, which is a better choice for small partners with immigration tendency. Most JD projects in Hong Kong are only two years, and the tuition fees are relatively low. It is the best choice for small partners who don't have much budget and don't want to be too far away from home.
But for those who want to experience exotic customs and immerse themselves completely in the English environment, the language environment and social environment in Hong Kong are relatively less ideal. So to sum up, you can choose the ideal JD project according to your actual situation.
