Research

The School of Business Law and Taxation prides itself on teaching courses that have practical application in the world of commerce and our research reflects the changes and evolution of businesses and organisations.

Our research on legal practices and policies has covered—and been of practical relevance to—industries such as mining, retail, sports, allied health and real estate. It has been cited in parliament and influenced government policies. As a result, we are able to develop new courses that respond to industry trends, regulatory practices and emerging areas of law.

Our journal, Legal Issues in Business, examines how law is applied in business.
