Dr Nwanneka Ezechukwu

I joined the University of Sheffield in 2021. Before joining Sheffield, I taught at the University of Nottingham, Nottingham Trent University and Birmingham City University.

My core research interest is in consumer law and policy. My current research projects focus on the regulatory mechanisms protecting consumers in the face of rapidly changing technology. I have also recently started looking at the linkage between consumer protection and trade governance. 

I hold a PhD in law from the University of Nottingham and an LLM (with distinction) in International Commercial Law from Cardiff University. I am also a first-class graduate of the Nigerian Law School, and I have been called to the Nigerian Bar.

I have a track record of producing high-quality research. My doctoral thesis was adjudged to be of high quality, and my PhD was awarded without corrections. I have also published with reputable peer-reviewed journals, including Legal Studies, The Journal of Business Law and the Journal of African Law.

To ensure that I deliver excellent teaching and supervision, I have completed a postgraduate certificate in higher education, and I am a fellow of the Higher Education Academy. I have also completed a postgraduate research supervision course accredited by the Staff and Educational Development Association (SEDA). To improve the practical relevance of my teaching and research, I have completed an advanced certificate in regulatory compliance with the International Compliance Association (ICA).
