Faculty of Law Features
The educational goals and curriculum were revamped in April 2004 along with other renovations. The educational goals of the Faculty include the development of students' abilities to define and analyze issues and disputes in society and to solve them in legal and political terms. The Faculty provides a well-developed curriculum and an effective educational structure to support student studies.
Two-course system
Since the educational goals of the Faculty include developing each student's ability to define and analyze problems in society by themselves, to think logically, and to find solutions in legal and political terms, the Faculty has adopted a two-course system comprising the Course of Law and the Course of Public Policy, both in the Department of Law.
Small seminar-style classes
The Faculty encourages small seminar-style classes. All students from freshmen to seniors are required to takes these classes so that they can receive a personalized education, be given more opportunities to make presentations and become more active in discussions than would be possible in a larger class.
Career oriented education
Both fields of law and public policy that the Faculty education covers are closely related to actual problems in society. In this way, the curriculum is designed to focus on practical issues and responses to actual social needs.
