History Although the Law School began properly teaching in 1936, a Faculty of Law was established pro forma with the foundation of the University of Queensland in 1911. This enabled the university to confer ad eundem gradum degrees, an honorary degree recognising the award given by another university, and Doctors of Laws honoris causa, recognising the contribution of selected persons toward the establishment of the university. A limited amount of law subjects began to be taught in 1926- when the first Garrick Professor of Law was appointed. However, this was under the ambit of the university's faculty of arts, as no law school had been properly established yet. In 1935 Thomas Charles Beirne endowed the university with £20,000, enabling the university's senate to officially approve the law school on 10 May 1935. In May 1936, students commenced studies under the newly formed TC Beirne School of Law. Reputation and student achievements Since 1935, twenty-seven UQ Law graduates have won Rhodes scholarships.
