BLT External Advisory Committee
Terms of Reference
The BLT External Advisory Committee is made up of five internal members, who
are senior academic staff within BLT and fifteen external members, who are distinguished
representatives from the legal, tax and accounting professions, government and
regulatory bodies, and other leading members of the business community. The
Committee will meet four times per year.
The central objective of the BLT External Advisory Committee is to provide
expert guidance and support to BLT in its teaching and research activities.
This will assist BLT in meeting its two main aims:
- to deliver the highest quality tertiary education in business law and taxation
to the business community, government and to the professions, both domestically
and internationally; and
- to conduct well-founded and rigorous research of international and domestic
importance.
External Advisory Committee will advise the Department on:
- the content and appropriateness of BLT's course offerings for students,
to ensure that our courses maintain cutting-edge relevance to the changing
education needs of the world in which our graduates are employed;
- BLT's overall research strategy, specific research project proposals,
and ways in which we can maximise the opportunities for collaborative research
linkages with government, industry and professional bodies;
- current and prospective developments in legal, tax, accounting and business
practice, to ensure that BLT's teaching and research activities address
those developments on an ongoing basis.
