UNLV and University of Sydney Announce Gaming Research MOU
Sydney Uni Gambling Treatment Clinic
Bo Bernhard, executive director of the UNLV International Gaming Institute (IGI), recently joined Nevada Governor Brian Sandoval on his trade mission to Australia to sign a memorandum of understanding with the University of Sydney. This historic, multidisciplinary MOU formalizes a new research collaboration between IGI and the University of Sydney’s Gambling Treatment Clinic & Research Unit centered around the issue of sports-wagering integrity.

“We are about to ‘invent the field’ of scientific study of these phenomena, alongside our colleagues in Australia,” Bernhard said. “As a leader in gaming scholarship and gaming regulation, the IGI and our new International Center for Gaming Regulation (ICGR) are well-equipped to collaborate with a world-class scholar in the University of Sydney's Alex Blaszczynski on issues that matter deeply to both of our communities.”
Under the MOU, the IGI, the IGI’s new ICGR, and University of Sydney’s Gambling Treatment Clinic & Research Unit will collaborate on a series of studies and literature reviews related to the evaluation of sports integrity and regulation in professional and amateur sports. The institutions will review current international regulatory approaches, with the aim of proposing guidelines designed to minimize the potential for gambling-related sports-match fixing. They will also research the psychological and personality factors that might increase the potential for elite sports athletes, officials, team employees, and referees to engage in behaviors that compromise the integrity of sports.
