Tax Research Round Table

Core Course


The Tax Research Round Table core course will expose students to emerging ideas in the taxation field. Lecturers will be drawn from Oxford University, including non-tax faculty who will cast light on recent developments in other areas of law, for example public law, restitution and legal theory, or who will discuss research in economics, accounting or finance where these developments are significant for tax experts. In addition we may call on International Research Fellows of the Centre for Business Taxation or other external experts to give a paper regarding their research.

This course involves lectures during the residential week in Michaelmas Term Week minus one of Year 2, plus a session on essay writing. 

The extended essay topics will be based on the research papers chosen for the roundtable.

The course is led by Professor Michael Devereux and Professor John Vella. There will be other lecturers and guests participating.
