The aim of the European course in the Master's degree in Public Law is to train general lawyers with enhanced skills in the field of European law (European human rights law, European Union law). As European law permeates all branches of law, skills in this field are highly sought-after.
Organization
Program
Teaching in the1st semester is divided between lectures, seminars and conferences featuring legal practitioners.
In particular, seminars are designed to develop new skills: oral expression, case studies, independent research on a given subject, etc.
Taking part in the Cassin competition, a mock trial based on the European Convention on Human Rights held at the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg, is a rewarding and highly formative experience in terms of developing analytical, writing and oral expression skills.
The completion of a research dissertation completes the training program and enables students to engage in a scientific process that is highly useful for forging their analytical and writing skills.
