Matthew

Law & Arts Student

I wasn't sure whether I wanted to do science, medicine or law, but after getting involved in Bond's High School Mooting Competition in Year 11, I just knew that being a barrister was my calling. Now I'm studying Law/Arts at Bond. I'm also the number 8 mooter in the world for international law after representing the uni in the global finals in Washington - that's definitely cool ;)

STUDYING: Bachelor of Laws and Bachelor of Arts (majoring in Chinese Language and International Relations)

INTERESTS: Watching movies and swimming at the beach

HOMETOWN: Melbourne, Australia

DREAM JOB: High Court Judge

HOW BOND IS HELPING ME GET THERE: It's the best law degree you can get in Australia! With plenty of opportunities to challenge and be challenged by your teachers, build practical lawyering skills and have a good time learning it all. A trip to Washington for our mooting competition helped too!
