The Jackson McDonald Computer Laboratory was established in 1993 to provide Law and Legal Studies students with their own computing facilities. It has Pentium workstations and gives students access to word processing, Internet browsing and e-mail. Murdoch's promotion of flexible teaching means an increasing number of units are being offered with strong online support. Additionally, the University provides facilities for students to access e-mail and the Internet from home through personal modems. Murdoch School of Law encourages its students to interact among themselves, to have fun and to develop an interest in particular areas of the law.
Many activities are open to students outside the structure programmes of study.
