The course aims to provide students with the necessary knowledge to understand the fundamentals of the subject, in its individual and collective aspects, as well as to address its main enforcing issues.

Elements of Private Law

Knowledge and understanding: At the end of the course, students will have the necessary tools to understand the rules governing the labour relations, in their individual and collective aspects. We expect, in particular, that they will acquire an overview of the discipline, as well as a good understanding of the main issues addressed.

Applying knowledge and understanding: Students must know how to analyze legal documents (laws, collective agreements, law case); they also must deal with case studies related to personnel management and labour relations. These results will be achieved through exercises related to case studies, seminar meetings.

Making judgemets: students must know how to read and interpret critically the topics, combining knowledge with their point of view. This means knowing how to deal with different aspects of the subject independently and with one’s own judgment. Teaching methods to achieve that goal will be: lectures; group work and seminars; production of written papers.

Communication skills: students must acquire the ability to express themselves clearly and correctly and demonstrate a good knowledge of technical and legal language related to the topic during the dialogues with the teacher and with their peers . These results will be achieved by means of: interventions in the classroom; group discussions; exposure and summary of some topics covered in previous lessons or written papers.

Learning skills: students must have developed the learning skills necessary to constant and rapid updating of their knowledge, as well as the acquisition, by themselves, of expertise and associated professional skills to enter the labour world. The teaching methods to achieve these results will be: lectures; and group discussions; dialogue with the teacher, seminars, production of written papaers.
