Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin - Prof. Dr. Matthias Ruffert

Wintersemester 2019/2020

Prof. Dr. Matthias Ruffert
10 330 - European law
Tuesdays 10-12, UL 6, 2002
2 SWS, 3 LP

The lecture offers an introduction to the theory and dogmatics of European law. It deals not only with the institutional core problems of the law of European integration (organs and functions of the EU, relation to member state law, legal protection), but also with the basis of substantive law (above all protection of fundamental rights on the one hand and internal market law on the other hand). European law is not only to be understood as an independent legal system, but also as an overarching legal layer in the structure of the member states' legal systems.

Examination:
Jurisprudence PO 2008 / PO 2015: Module examination ÖIII (4h)

The four-hour module final exam will contain a part under European law and a part under national law. Students of the Socrates Programme or the LLM Programmes as well as students of other disciplines can choose only one of these parts as required and then have two hours to complete it. Oral examinations do not take place for this course.
