Research
The 2008 Research Assessment Exercise rated 80% of the research as being at international level, and 40% as being of either world-leading or internationally excellent quality. [4] The School has research centres or groupings in the areas of Competition Law, Media and Internet Law and International Company and Commercial Law. Additionally, members of the School have international reputations for research in Intellectual Property Law, Public Order law, Evidence, Criminal Justice and Procedure, Comparative Private Law, Contract, Tort and Restitution, and Family law. In addition to these School-based research clusters, many researchers in the School belong to formal networks which go beyond the Law School. For example, the School's competition lawyers are members of the ESRC Centre for Competition Policy [CCP] and Professor Morten Hviid of the Law School takes over from Catherine Waddams as director in September 2010. The School's Media and Internet lawyers play a central role in media@uea and Professor Alastair Mullis is a co-director, with Professor John Street.
