Each year, Monash University sends a team to compete in the national rounds of the Jessup Moot in Canberra in February. The top two teams from these national rounds then progress to the international finals in Washington DC in March.

The competition will be held at Australia National University (ANU), Canberra, during the first week of February 2016. Students who are selected as part of the team may be eligible to be enrolled in a 6-point undergraduate unit – LAW 4806 – Jessup Moot Competition.

The faculty is currently running another international mooting competition – the Vis International Commercial Arbitration Moot. Students cannot participate in both moots in the same year, but you are welcome to apply for both.

Annual Willem C Vis International Commercial Arbitration Moot

Formal applications for students interested in the Willem C Vis International Commercial Arbitration Moot for 2015/16 held in Hong Kong and Vienna next March and April are now open.

Participation can count for your degree as a 6 point subject. The subject is an intensive and practical introduction to problem based learning and legal analysis in a small group environment. It develops strategic thinking and provides experience in a simulated international commercial arbitration. It is not just for those interested in commercial law. Law firms recognize and highly value the skills provided by the Vis moot.

You may apply for both Jessup moot and Vis moots, but be sure to indicate this when applying.

Deadline is Wednesday 17 July 2015, 6:00pm
