Prerequisites for admission
The preliminary activities are defined according to the didactic regulations of the degree course. In any case, knowledge of the fundamental notions of constitutional law and private law is demanded.
Teaching methods
Teaching is provided through lectures, in which, however, the active participation of participants is promoted in order to discuss problems and practical cases. This teaching method will enable students to acquire and hone their skills in the critical reworking and practical application of the legal concepts presented by the teacher. The use of e-learning teaching materials on the Ariel platform is no planned. Course attendance, although strongly recommended, is not compulsory.
Teaching Resources
For those attending the teaching and examination program will be agreed and defined in detail during the lessons.
All students, whether attending or not, are required to study an updated manual of administrative law, at the student's choice, and the rules mentioned therein.
We recommend the use of the following manual:
G. Greco insieme a M. Cafagno, D.U. Galetta, M. Ramajoli, M. Sica, Argomenti di diritto amministrativo, Vol. I, parte generale, Giuffrè editore, Milano, ultima edizione.
Assessment methods and Criteria
The exam is an oral interview focusing on the entire course curriculum; the final judgement is expressed in thirtieth on the basis of the answers given by the student to the questions asked by the examiner. The exam is designed to verify, in addition to the knowledge of the topics dealt with in the lessons and in the manuals adopted, the student's ability to deal with and solve, in an autonomous way, legal issues through the critical reworking of the notions acquired and, in the event of participation in the lessons, the understanding and ability to evaluate the cases dealt with. There are no intermediate written or oral tests.
