Education

The Education portfolio delivers a range of initiatives designed to support JD students throughout their studies at MLS, with a focus on enhancing learning, building confidence, and creating opportunities for academic connection. We also work closely with the faculty to raise student feedback on course delivery, assessment, and special consideration where needed.

We are responsible for a number of initiatives and programs.

• We produce the Orientation Guidebook, which provides first year students with an overview of what’s on offer at MLS.

• We oversee the Pathfinder program, run during LMR and designed to connect first year students with their peers and later year students.

• We recruit for, and coordinate, the Student Tutorial Service (STS), which provides a platform for high-achieving students to support others with core subjects in which they excelled.

• We host the Sir Anthony Mason Lecture, an annual flagship event delivered in collaboration with faculty, featuring a leading legal professional.

• We oversee Stepping Stones, a youth mentoring program that fosters relationships between current MLS students and senior secondary school students from schools underrepresented at the University of Melbourne.

• We also run Lock In and Level Up peer study sessions, designed to support strong study habits while building confidence and connection within the cohort.
