2.1. Introduction

Università Bocconi's School of Law offers, a five-year Integrated Master of Arts in Giurisprudenza [Law] (CLMG) program.
The CLMG program is taught in two class groups made up of an average of 140 students each.

The study plan is expressed with credit points.
A credit point is the unit of measurement which determines the workload students are required to fulfil. It is assumed that students are adequately prepared from the start to carry out the educational activities required by the degree program. The workload includes both classroom activities (lessons, exercises, seminars) as well as group work and individual study.

Credit points are given for all educational activities which are part of the program requirements.

In accordance with the ECTS (European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System), on average one credit point is equivalent to 25 hours of work, about 8 of which are spent in the classroom.

The average workload for a full-time student is set at 60 credit points per year, as per agreement.

In order to receive the Integrated Master of Arts in Law degree, students must gain at least 300 credit points.

The credit points assigned to each educational activity are earned when students pass an exam or its equivalent.

2.1.3. Educational objectives

The Integrated Master of Arts in Law has the following educational objectives:

  • the first part of the educational path provides the juridical 'method' and the cultural and technical basis to train the jurist working primarily in a company;
  • the second part of the educational path provides advanced studies to complete jurist's cultural training, via monograph studies of specific institutions or subject areas which have been studied in the 'basic courses';
  • promote the development of juridical competences in a European and international perspective not only via mandatory basic courses of comparative and international law, but also via optional courses, some of which taught in English and via student international mobility with study periods in partner universities;
  • complete the juridical education with basic economics, business and quantitative studies for easy access in the economic cultural context in which the modern jurist will work;
  • assure the cognitive instruments necessary to make and draft complex juridical thoughts leading to correct solutions to problems requiring a specialized knowledge with particular reference to topics of the jurist in companies or public and international institutions;
  • develop competence and knowledge through educational activities involving the active student participation in class and interaction with the professor through earning on-the field skills through internship and case studies;
  • develop skills to use the IT skills, English language and a second EU language in juridical context.

2.1.7. Compulsory courses

The program structure is made up of compulsory courses which correspond to exams which all students must pass. In order to reach the degree program's educational goals and receive the Integrated Master of Arts in Law degree, students must pass the exams related to these courses.


According to current regulations, such educational activities are classified as: "basic", "characteristic" of the degree's field of study and "independently decided upon by the University" (D.M. 25 November 2005).

The compulsory courses, whose credit points and subject areas satisfy ministerial requirements, are divided into two categories:

  • basic compulsory courses, which are the same for all Integrated Master of Arts in Law program students;
  • compulsory courses included in the second/third year, that can be chosen alternatively by the student;
  • advanced compulsory courses (a.c. - advanced courses), positioned in the fourth and fifth years of studies, which expand on topics dealt with in the basic courses taken in the first years of the program. Each advanced course has a specialized profile related to each major.


The course profiles are available on the website at www.unibocconi.eu/courses

Detailed programs (course syllabuses) are available online and they are usually distributed by professors on the first days of lessons.


Last change 01/06/2017 08:00


2.1.8. Elective courses

 

Students must select elective courses in order to complete the program requirements regarding activities chosen by the student. An elective course is worth 6 credit points. 


Course profiles of the elective courses are available on the website at www.unibocconi.eu/courses.


The detailed profiles of the courses (course syllabuses) are available online and in any case are usually distributed in class by the professors when the course starts.
 

Before choosing their electives students should consult the table of "Incompatible courses". The "Incompatible courses table" indicates the courses that cannot be chosen together in the same study plan because their course programs are either exactly or partly similar.


The exams related to electives can be taken at universities abroad as part of the programs offered by the International Relations Service. The criteria and credit approval procedure is indicated in "Recognition of exams passed in foreign universities".

The information relating to the internship are made viewable by the trainee on the JobGate so that he/she can check that the contents agreed upon by with the company during the interviews are coherent with the ones specified. The confirmation is valid as internship acceptance.

The original document is promptly sent by the company to the Internship Office for having it signed by the University.

The trainee must ensure that the company sends original copy of the document to the University. When it is not returned, the internship cannot be considered as valid. The internship document, completed with all signatures, is uploaded on the JobGate portal of the University for being used by the company and by the trainee.

For all internships carried out of Italy the students trainees must verify with the company regarding the methods for obtaining, if requested, the appropriate visa and any other needed document so that the internship can be carried out in compliance with the law of the hosting Country. If documentation of the University is also needed to support the visa request, the trainee can make reference to the cert@B procedure for the official certifications and to the Internship Office (through the Help&Contact procedure) for any ad hoc documents (see paragraph 4.8 “Certifications and documents”).
