Thinkspace

In 2011, the Faculty of Law introduced a new initiative, called ‘Thinkspace’, a one hour seminar series, designed to share information and encourage collegiate collaboration within the faculty, and to promote a wider understanding of the types of research being undertaken by faculty members. Within this series, academic staff present their current research and stimulate discussion around these concepts.
