Introduction to the Faculty

The Faculty of Law and Management was established in 1997. The Faculty aims to perform at a world class level in teaching and research, supporting this vision through a commitment to continued improvement in quality and effectiveness.

The Faculty of Law and Management has an international perspective and actively encourages international exchanges for staff and students, cooperative arrangements with overseas universities and involvement in international research projects. The Faculty also has strong links with professions, industry, schools, community groups and local government.

The Faculty's six schools: Accounting, Economics and Finance, Graduate School of Management, Law, Management, and Regional School of Business offer a broad range of courses supported by comprehensive specialist subjects across the disciplines of law, business law, economics, accounting, marketing, finance, management, tourism and hospitality.

The Faculty currently has an enrolment of over 6000 undergraduate and 1400 post graduate students, across five metropolitan and regional campuses and a number of external sites. Approximately 35 per cent of these students are international from over 40 different countries.

The Faculty believes it is important to develop the language and academic skills (LAS) of all students early in their studies. The Language and Academic Skills Unit (LASU) in the Faculty of Law and Management assists undergraduate and postgraduate students to present university-standard work. Individual LASU support for undergraduate students is provided at the school level; Honours and postgraduate students may make an individual appointment with the LASU coordinator to discuss planning their thesis and for assistance with their writing. Non-native English-speakers should contact the Academic Skills (ESL) Unit on Level 4 of the Humanities 3 Building for help with grammar, listening and speaking.
