Teaching Methods
Though students are exceptionally allowed to intervene during theory classes, practical classes are especially designed both to ensure their questions get answered and to discuss specific cases.
Learning Outcomes
Along with the scientific-pedagogical dimension that is stressed in the first semester, a practical concern is also in mind.
The law of obligations is a very broad field. Even though we have set aside “Contracts in Particular”, the topics included in the General Part of The Law of Obligations are hardly dealt with in full detail.
As we proceed through the core contents, our concern is one of leaving behind no gaps, and also bring up the basic ideas concerning items that will be taught in due time – e.g. Securities.
On the other hand, we seek to familiarize students with the rules of general rules main contracts and some specific Statutes, and this we do mainly by means of examples that may illustrate the different rules.
