women-grace-li.jpg

Grace Li
Associate Dean (Internationalization) UTS Law
University of Technology Sydney
University of Technology Sydney Alumna


It is a challenge for me to list my “achievements” because I perceive my life’s journey as a serendipitous voyage rather than a collection of personal triumphs. Instead, I believe I’ve been fortunate. I’ve travelled from being a humble Chinese international student who could barely construct a sentence in English 25 years ago to becoming a confident law professor passionate about globalizing legal education and supporting international students in every possible way.
In my current position as the Associate Dean (International) at UTS Law Faculty, I’ve had the privilege, courtesy of my good fortune, to take the lead and contribute to meaningful educational initiatives. These initiatives not only enhance the learning experiences of Chinese students in Australia but also enable many Chinese universities to gain insights into how Australian legal education is designed and delivered; how lawyers and judges can collaborate with law schools in education, and how law schools can actively engage with and benefit our society.
I hope that my work over the past 25 years has, in some small measure, made the study of law less intimidating for Chinese students, more valuable for the legal industry, and more beneficial to our communities both in Australia and China.
 
我的人生没有什么值得吹嘘的成就。我深知,这一切只是一系列偶然的结果,远非个人努力的原因。我深感幸运。这些幸运之神一直眷顾着我,帮助我从25年前那个不敢开口说英语的中国留学生逐渐蜕变成了一个自信满满的法学教授,一个对全球化法律教育充满热情、乐于助力国际学生的法学教授。

我现在在担任悉尼科技大学法学院的副院长,主管国际事务。再次感慨幸运之神的眷顾,在这个职位上,我深感荣幸能够参与并引领许多有意义的教育项目。这些项目不仅提升了中国学生在澳大利亚的学习体验,还使许多中国大学深入了解澳大利亚法律教育的理念和设计;让律师和法官明白了与法学院在教育方面合作的益处,以及法学院如何积极参与并造福我们的社会。

我希望过去我20多年的工作能够在某种程度上减轻中国学生对法律学习的恐惧,为法律行业注入更多价值观,也为澳大利亚和中国的社区带来更多福祉。我坚信,每一次机遇和每一次幸运都是一次契机,而我的责任就是将这些契机转化为对社会的积极影响。愿未来的岁月中,我能继续努力,为法学教育事业和国际学生的未来做出更多的贡献。
