The European Union is the largest supranational regional organisation in the world, and the largest economy. It has its own highly developed legal system, and places central importance on the rule of law and legal certainty within the Union. This course, European Union Law, aims to give graduate students advanced knowledge of European Union law, its institutional structure and its substantive application in commercial fields. Students will develop advanced writing and communication skills in the detailed articulation of this law in research assignments. The course is available in the Master of Laws, Juris Doctor and Bachelor of Laws Honours.

The course deals with the European Union Law as it applies to the development of international organisations, free trade agreements, and the protection of individual rights. It is delivered intensively in four seminars over two weeks (two seminars in each of two weeks), and will involve closely supervised research assignments.

On successful completion of this course students should be able to:

1. evaluate developments in the law of the European Union and critically examine the relationship between those developments and contemporary theory or practice;
2. demonstrate advanced knowledge of European Union law and its influence on other legal systems;
3. undertake, interpret and evaluate legal research using advanced legal research methodologies and techniques relevant to the law of the European Union;
4. articulate advanced knowledge of European Union law in written or oral presentations.
