Description
This book is about the legal environment of Australian universities. While their primary function today remains the provision of higher education and research, Australiaâs universities are now large commercial global corporations. Their operations involve the management of a diverse range of relationships, both internal and external, and the law plays a central role in these. This book first considers the legal framework of the higher education sector and the relationships universities have externally, particularly with government â their governance, their funding and accountability, and their maintenance of high standards and quality. It then traverses many of the areas where the law has a significant impact on the relationships universities have with their students and their staff. It covers matters from anti-discrimination and equal opportunity, transparency and due process in decision-making, employment and student matters, to property rights such as copyright and ownership of intellectual property.
