The ROCIT research unit congratulates Professor Chris Symes on his recent promotion to full Professor. This is a prestigious achievement and Professorships are only given to those academics that have a history of dedication, hard work and commitment to teaching and research.

Professor Symes’ main academic interest is insolvency law. In this area, he has written textbooks and numerous articles for both academic and practitioner readership. Christopher’s book Australian Insolvency Law, co-written with John Duns, is now in its third edition and in 2015 a companion Casebook (with Brown and Wellard) was also published. He is also a co-author of Corporations Law In Principle and Business and Corporations Law (now in its second edition).

Please join the ROCIT research unit in congratulating Professor Chris Symes on his success.
