Postgraduate study

The host of this project, the Law Faculty at the University of New South Wales (UNSW), has a developed program in its Master of Laws degree and a flourishing and highly international group of scholars undertaking higher degrees by research. The Faculty has particular strengths in courses and staff with supervisory expertise in areas connected to the digital economy. It also has well established courses of study and capacity for research supervision in the parallel areas of commercial, corporate and taxation law.

There are particular benefits of a postgraduate research degree in the area of online investing or e-commerce at UNSW Law Faculty. These include being close to the activities of the Cyberspace Law Policy and Research Centre and its research associates and various research projects, and specifically this one on online investing regulation. The Centre and its projects also have connections with industry, regulators and various professional groups, which can also be useful in the conduct of research.

There are a number of active researchers and teachers in the Faculty, whose work on emerging areas of knowledge would be made available to research students through the supervision relationship. In addition students are able to attend seminars and conferences, hear and meet distinguished national and international scholars visiting or working in the area.

Supervisors available in these areas are:

The following is a list of postgraduate courses offered by the Faculty that may be particularly relevant to anyone developing or wishing to further an interest in online investing regulation, and e-commerce more generally.

The available postgraduate subjects are set out below (those with asterisk not offered in every sesssion):
