this stage of your life. Its your investment in the future not just financially, but
in terms of the time, energy and effort you will put into your studies over the

So, like any investment, your choice must be based on the potential returns:
Which university will give you more than a degree? Which university will open
the door to a truly extraordinary career? Bond University has positioned itself as
a leading university, imbued with a spirit to innovate, a commitment to influence
and a dedication to inspire tomorrows professionals. We believe that the
knowledge and skills you learn in the classroom are simply the starting point.

the corporate ladder if you graduated a full year ahead of your competitors and
had specific training in leadership skills. And with a global network of contacts,
you will be able to work anywhere in the world.

We know you have the potential to make a real difference because we have
seen so many of our students over the years do just that. Living and working in
every corner of the globe, they are now heading up major corporations, helping
disadvantaged communities in developing countries, researching medical
breakthroughs, engineering cutting-edge technologies.

As a graduate of Bond University, you will be joining their elite ranks. If your goal
is to be the best that you can be, to have your choice of the top jobs and to forge
a successful and satisfying career at the highest level, Bond University can give
you all the tools you need to bring your ambition to life.

INDUSTRY CONNECTIONS
I have also worked at a large multinational
pharmaceutical company, Astellas Pharma Ltd
where I managed contracts. Here, I also developed
and maintained an international project with
senior counsel for the global transfer of data and
prepared EU model clause agreements.

INTERESTING FACTS
I worked on one of the first Dangerous Dogs Act
appeals in London. We were trying to argue that
the dog was no longer a danger to others seeing
as he had only bitten a police officer as a puppy
during a raid! The story has a sad ending, but the
legal arguments were fascinating.
