The aim of the course is to enhance student research activity. Among other things, the course builds upon the fact that during their study students produce seminar papers and other written work which, in the case that they meet certain criteria, can serve as a basis for a competing work in a research paper competition. Students will get acquainted with the scientific research methods within the field of jurisprudence, learn the logical structuring of professional legal texts and the application of the referencing system. They will also extend their specialised knowledge within selected legal domains and train their argumentation as well as presentation skills that are essential to a lawyer. Students will be able to consult lecturers. The course does not include regularly taught seminars.

At the same time significantly deepen knowledge of the area to be within the technical text devote even broader societal context.
