The competition involves students applying their negotiation and collaborative skills to complex commercial problems in order to advance their interests and move towards a mutually beneficial settlement, with the assistance of a mediator.
The four Monash law students were among the 500 participants competing on behalf of 80 universities from more than 40 countries. The Monash team performed outstandingly, proudly taking the third prize trophy.
Monash law students have the opportunity to compete in a variety of international mooting and advocacy competitions every year, regularly winning awards. Participation in competitions is a rewarding experience and students can receive credit towards their law studies.
