Liz Hemphill is lecturer with the School of Marketing. her career has spanned the Information Technology industry (as mainframe computer operator and systems programmer), eCommerce Industry (in sales, product design and product administration), Market Research Industry from project design, implementation, analysis and reporting back to management), and Academia (teaching at TAFE, undergraduate and post-graduate levels). I take all University Policies very seriously and endeavour to implement these in all aspects of my teaching, research and administrative practice.

My research interests focus on rural recruitment and health industry recruitment working closely with our Division of Business, School of Management.

I work closely with in the Centre for Comparative Water Policies and Law in the area of consumer metrics for policy implementation. Links between consumer attitudes and behaviour bring management of environmental resources consumption into the marketing domain. Measurement and analysis of these in different environmental contexts, such as water management, can provide essential feedback for future resource sustainability.
