The Centre for Computational Law has merged with the Centre for AI and Data Governance to form the Centre for Digital Law. The new Centre examines the transformative impact of digital technologies on legal systems, government, society, and economy. Our research, including the Research Programme on Computational Law, continue under its ambit. Our current website will remain operational in this transitional period but we strongly encourage you to visit our new website at cdl.smu.edu.sg and explore the updated features and content. If you have any questions or need assistance, please contact our support team at cclawadmin@smu.edu.sg.
