Mr Jason Laws

Personal Statement

I joined University of Liverpool Management School in July 2011 as a senior lecturer in Corporate Finance. Previously I have worked at Liverpool John Moores University and I have also worked with University of London, University of Leicester, SOAS and University of Glasgow. I currently hold the role as Associate Dean for Postgraduate Study in the Management School.

My philosophy on finance education is that it should real-world and applied. At Liverpool we are fortunate to hold one of the largest Bloomberg terminal rooms among UK Universities I am very keen on introducing innovative approaches to the classroom, and I was instrumental in bringing Poll Everywhere to the Management School. This is a tool that promotes interactivity in classrooms, especially in large groups.

My usual teaching diet consists of:

Corporate Financial Management (Undergraduate)
Derivatives (Postgraduate)
