ECU School of Business and Law's Mission. The School of Business and Law develops industry-ready graduates through high-quality teaching and learning experiences and engaged, applied research. The three key elements of the School’s mission have been expanded as follows: Industry Ready Graduates The School proactively engages with industry for the benefit of the student experience and beyond. The School values academics with real world experience and promotes industry-centric teaching in curricula. With leading edge work integrated learning (WIL) expertise, the School develops authentic, knowledgeable graduates who are willing to learn, engage and contribute with their chosen industry and to society more broadly. High-quality teaching and learning experiences The School consistently provides excellent teaching and learning experiences for a diverse student body, facilitated by enthusiastic and caring academics who genuinely place the student at the centre of their teaching practice. The School places special emphasis on providing learning environments and facilities that replicate contemporary business practice. Engaged, applied research The School produces research that matters to our stakeholders by academics who are sought out as experts and thought leaders. Academics work collaboratively with colleagues and industry to produce research that is translatable, impacting both scholarship and industry. Importantly, research informs teaching practice and curricula in the School. In addition to the School’s mission, the Law discipline has a further declaration: As a provider of an accredited law program, the School is proud to express its commitment to the rule of law and the promotion of the highest standards of ethical conduct, professional responsibility, and community service.
