Learning Outcomes
This course is intended to complement existing courses by examining the regulatory framework of the European Union and will focus on particular regulatory activities. The course will equip students with the critical skills required to understand EU governance and policy, thereby going beyond the learning outcomes conventionally expected to result from the study of EU law. Accordingly, it will assist place EU law in the context of the economic challenges confronting the EU, and the governance structure within which the EU develops capacity to meet and respond to such challenges.
