Research
The Faculty of Law is dedicated to conducting research of high quality and relevance to society, producing nationally leading and internationally excellent research. Almost all areas of law are represented at the Faculty.
The Faculty of Law has the objective of being a nationally leading and internationally prominent faculty in terms of legal research and education, as well as in terms of collaboration with the surrounding society. These three areas of the Faculty's organisation are interlinked and mutually dependent. Education at the Faculty is and should be closely linked to and reflect the research conducted therein. This ensures that education is conducted on a research basis.
