Regular Undergraduate Program
As mandated by Law No. 12 of 2012 on Higher Education, the educational curriculum of an institution is mandated to be always in line and renewed according to the development of needs and science and technology (IPTEK) as elaborated in the Graduate Learning Outcomes. In order to revise the curriculum which has been implemented since 2015, the UGM Bachelor in Law Program has held activities in evaluating and changing the curriculum since the beginning of 2020. Changes in the curriculum in universities must be carried out in response to the development of activities in Science, Technology, and the Arts) community needs, and the needs of graduate users (stakeholder needs). The Faculty of Law, UGM routinely holds curriculum workshops, both for undergraduate and postgraduate programs, as well as a series of annual Dies Natalis events. However, at the beginning of 2020, the Ministry of Education and Culture implemented a new policy in the field of higher education through the "Merdeka Belajar - Kampus Merdeka" (MBKM) program which is still under dynamic discussions. The MBKM policy provides opportunities for students to gain wider learning experiences and new competencies through several learning activities outside the study program. This new policy requires the application of a relaxation policy to previously implemented curriculums.

Program Sarjana Program Studi Hukum Fakultas Hukum UGM memiliki keunggulan bila dibandingkan dengan Program Sarjana Program Studi Hukum pada Perguruan Tinggi lain, yaitu:
Keunggulan Pertama, kematangan dalam pengembangan ilmu hukum. Fakultas Hukum UGM (FH UGM) yang telah memasuki usia ke-77 tahun pada 17 Februari 2023, di mana merupakan fakultas hukum pertama yang didirikan oleh Pemerintah Republik Indonesia yang telah berdaulat. Dalam perjalanannya untuk mewujudkan semangat from good to great faculty of law, FH UGM melalui Program Sarjana Program Studi Hukum telah memberikan kontribusi penting dalam perkembangan bangsa dan negara, dan khususnya pada perkembangan ilmu hukum di Indonesia. Banyak pendapat dan pemikiran yang lahir, tumbuh, dan kemudian menyebar dari FH UGM yang kemudian digunakan untuk memperkuat dan memperbaiki sistem hukum Indonesia, selaras dengan cita FH UGM untuk menciptakan Bulaksumur School of Legal Thoughts.
Keunggulan Kedua, kelengkapan bidang kajian hukum. Program Sarjana Program Studi Hukum didukung oleh alat struktur organisasi FH UGM, berupa Departemen yang bertugas mengembangkan ilmu pengetahuan dan sebagai unsur pelaksana penyelenggaraan akademik. Program Sarjana Program Studi Hukum didukung 11 (sebelas) Departemen, yang terdiri dari:
- Departemen Hukum Adat;
- Departemen Hukum Administrasi Negara;
- Departemen Hukum Agraria;
- Departemen Hukum Bisnis;
- Departemen Hukum Internasional;
- Departemen Hukum Islam;
- Departemen Hukum Lingkungan;
- Departemen Hukum Pajak;
- Departemen Hukum Perdata;
- Departemen Hukum Pidana;
- Departemen Hukum Tata Negara.
Dengan dukungan 11 (sebelas) Departemen tersebut menjadi Program Sarjana Program Studi Hukum memiliki cakupan bidang keilmuan yang bukan semata luas, tetapi juga memiliki spesifikasi yang mendalam pada setiap bidang kajian yang diampu oleh Departemen. Hal ini berkontribusi terhadap kualitas pembelajaran yang diselenggarakan oleh Program Sarjana Program Studi Hukum.
Keunggulan Ketiga, kejelasan lingkup pembelajaran. Program Sarjana Program Studi Hukum menetapkan lingkup pembelajaran yang berorientasi pada terciptanya kompetensi utama lulusan, berupa: (a) memahami, menginternalisasikan dan melaksanakan nilai-nilai religius, Pancasila, dan tanggung jawab etika profesi hukum serta integritas di dalam kehidupan bermasyarakat, berbangsa dan bernegara; (b) menguasai asas, teori, doktrin, dan norma hukum baik nasional maupun internasional dengan pendekatan penelitian hukum monodisipliner; dan (c) menguasai isu-isu permasalahan hukum kontemporer di masyarakat baik dalam lingkup nasional maupun global. Dengan demikian, pembelajaran pada Program Sarjana Program Studi Hukum memiliki fokus yang berbeda bila dibanding dengan jenjang magister yang berorientasi pada arah pembangunan hukum dan dengan jenjang doktor yang berorientasi pada filsafat ilmu hukum.
