Bronwen Jackman serves as a Lecturer in the School of Law at the University of New England, having joined the institution in 1996 initially as a casual academic. She possesses qualifications including an LLM, SAB, and Diploma in Law, which she completed while balancing professional commitments and family responsibilities. Renowned as one of the School of Law's longest-serving lecturers, Jackman has delivered instruction across a broad spectrum of legal subjects, encompassing Evidence and Proof (LAW313), Family Law (LAW370), Equity and Trusts (LAW340), Fundamentals of Evidence Law (LSSU261), Property Law, Employment Law, Law and the NDIS, and Law Experiential Learning (LLM506), among others—virtually every core offering except Criminal Law. Her dedication to student engagement is evident in her management of large cohorts and involvement in community legal outreach, including partnerships with organizations like Centro ASSIST and service on the board of the North and North-West Community Legal Centre.
