European legal system will be explained mostly during lectures, accompanied with presentations and discussions. During many lectures we aim at making our students active in problem solving and deepening the analysis of materials prepared at home. All lectures are in English. English is also a compulsory course, and language skills can be developed further in the framework of optional modules.
Students also have an opportunity to enter into moderated debates, as well as trying a moot court or simulation of activities of bodies acting in the human rights area. Students analyze case studies mostly from European courts, and learn to write a complaint to the European Court of Human Right.
We organize lectures by visiting professors from different legal systems, as well as webinars. You will have a chance to finalize your interests in law affecting business and society during bachelors seminars in smaller groups, up to 12 participants, where tutors will guide you through the process of writing bachelor thesis and conducting your own research
