About
The program in Vienna offers students a unique opportunity to learn more about international business issues within a European framework. Students will initially engage in a general study of the Austrian legal system and comparative studies between the civil and common law systems. The course then shifts its focus to European Union law, covering its sources, framework and fundamental principles. Classes run for three weeks, and most are held in the mornings. They meet either at the law school of the University of Vienna or at the Austrian National Defense Academy, where participants are housed. Students will have full use of the law library and other facilities at the University of Vienna School of Law. Both the School of Law and the National Defense Academy are located in the historic center of Vienna.Students may end this program with the final examination in Vienna followed by an internship in Vienna. Alternatively, they may continue to Budapest, Hungary for an introduction to Hungarian legal systems and then an internship in Budapest.
Academic program: May 22 – June 9 (4 units)
Optional internship: June 12 ~ July 14 (4 units)
