About our Courses
The Faculty of Law offers a large number of courses taught in English. The courses consist of lectures, lessons, seminars, individual studies and teaching in base groups.
The studies are based on a two semester system. The autumn semester runs from the beginning of September to the middle of January and the spring semester from the middle of January to the beginning of June. All advanced level courses, including the law courses in English, run for ten or twenty weeks.
