Law – (LL.B.)

The Faculty of Law aims to provide students with the opportunity of combining their theoretical knowledge with an awareness of legal practice. This is to help facilitate their adjustment to the legal profession on graduation. For this reason, class sizes are kept relatively small in the Law Faculty to allow close personal support for each student. Students are also able to apply their theoretical knowledge during tutorial classes. One of the most important features of this program is the `moot court room´, where students have the opportunity to examine legal problems by playing the roles of judge, prosecutor and attorney. Procedings are filmed on camera to facilitate learning, as students watch and evaluate their performances after the event. The Faculty of Law offers a wide range of courses, incorporating various disciplines, which relate to contemporary law. The curriculum is structured to provide students with a foundation in the classical areas, and then diversifies to incorporate contemporary fields. Students learn about such subjects as Constitutional Law, Administrative Law, Civil Law, Commercial Law and Criminal Law. After mastering these fields, this knowledge is then synthesized into an international or business perspective. This allows students to move into more specialized fields including Competition Law, Intellectual and International Business Law, Transport Law and Maritime Law.
