WORKFORCE PROJECTIONS

No workforce statistics are currently available but it is interesting to note that The University of Auckland Faculty of Law offers the conjoint BHSc/LLB degree, which is said to permit students to plan a programme offering a sound introduction to law and the health care sector, and possibly lead to a career in medical law, health policy, health management, or health care ethics. ¹

This suggests a significant increase (or anticipated increase) in opportunities in the medico-legal field.
