Centres & Institutes
The Law School is host to a growing number of institutes and centres of research and teaching specialising in a wide variety of legal fields. Graduate students and others are encouraged to participate in the research centres' teaching and research programs, and to use the research centres as a resource to pursue your particular research interests.
In addition to teaching and research programs, the institutes and centres regularly arrange international and national conferences, seminars, interest group discussions and in-house programs on leading-edge topics. While academics from within the Faculty are key contributors to the research centres' activities, the Centres benefit in their activities from the extensive involvement of a variety of experts and leading practitioners drawn from relevant industries, professions, investment institutions, governments and universities in Australia and overseas.
