Professor Anthony Connolly is Head of School of the ANU Law School, a role he has held for the past three years. In this role he has provided leadership in relation to a number of teaching, research and administrative reforms within the School, with the aim of securely establishing it as one of the world's very best law schools. His scholarly expertise lies in the areas of legal philosophy, Indigenous rights law, and public law.


"As Head of School, my ability to effectively support and supervise academic staff and participate in School- and College-level decision making has been enhanced by my regular attendance at and participation in Academic Board meetings. I am nominating myself for re-election to Academic Board in order to continue to inform my role as Head of School in this way for the next two years."
