Teaching Methods
The course will provide hours of tutorato didattico (with materials relating to concrete cases).
The Course wil also offer the chance to take part to a "Negotiation Lab" in English to study the principles of negotiation according to the method of the Harvard Law School, at the turn of the first and second semester (in order to make attendance compatible with the normal calendar of the various lessons). Students attending to the Negotiation Lab will be provided with the chance to enrol to the Italian Negotiation Competition and possibly to The International Negotiation Competition (“INC”), which is the first and largest international negotiation competition in English aimed at law students. The aim of the competition is to promote greater interest in negotiation and to provide law students with the tools to develop skills and abilities in the field of international transactions and disputes. Participants are called to face and overcome the difficulties deriving from the cultural differences between the various competitors, as well as to deal with the multiple styles of negotiation, with ethical limitations, social norms and commercial practices widespread in the various countries. The initiative was launched in 1998, when two American law schools, Creighton University and Pepperdine University, sponsored the first International Negotiation Competition).
Lab is 36 hours and is being formalized for the granting of credits as a supernumerary activities.
The Negotiation Lab is an optional part highly recommended in the course of Civil Procedure Law and Institutions of Civil Procedure Law, taking into account the important opportunity that the INC offers also from the point of view of the internationalization of Unibg and the recruiting of our students (in in past editions it has happened that internships or hiring in important international realities were offered to students: the Competition therefore offers a first-rate showcase also in this perspective).
