(File 95/0597)

Professor C R Williams, Dean, Faculty of Law made a brief presentation to Council during which he referred to the document A Profile of the Monash Law Faculty 1995, previously circulated to Council members. Professor Williams advised Council that the faculty had recently undertaken a major review of its undergraduate and postgraduate curricula to ensure that the quality of the Monash law programs were maintained despite a trend elsewhere towards introducing more condensed courses. The faculty's postgraduate courses had undergone extensive restructuring and were attracting the involvement of practitioners as students and in a teaching capacity.

The faculty was continuing to maintain strong relations with the profession, despite its more distant geographic location from the central business district; the Law School Foundation was aiding this relationship through activities such as its prestigious lecture series. Professor Williams advised Council that, despite these efforts, it remained difficult in the current business environment to obtain grants or maintain fundraising levels from private companies. In response to a query from a member of Council, Professor Williams advised Council that while the majority of students commenced their law studies with the intention of entering practice as a barrister or solicitor upon their completion, within three to five years from actual completion approximately 40% of graduates were focusing on alternative career paths such as banking, accounting and the public service.
