It is generally not advisable to take all level 4 law courses in the same semester, and a decision on admission to moire than one course in the same semester will be taken in individual cases taking into account all relevant circumstances.

Your teacher will inform you in the first session about any compulsory tasks that need to completed during the course as a prerequisite for being admitted to the final exam as well as the maximum number of classes you may miss.

ASSESSMENT
There is no final written exam for this course as the assessment will be based on continuous assessment.

Registration for the exam via mein campus is necessary (registration period: Monday, 20th November (00:01) - Friday, 8th December (12:00)). The exam number is 30162.

REPEATING THE COURSE
We expect to offer this course again in the summer semester 2018. Students who fail the exam and wish to retake it may do so at the end of the next semester without having to retake the whole course, providing they obtain the grade 4,7. Students who fail with the grade 5,0 must retake the whole course before being allowed to attempt the exam again.

Inhalt
This course concentrates primarily on spoken formal and legal English in a number of situations: orally presenting academic papers and case summaries, leading the ensuing discussion therefrom and preparing a case for a short mooting exercise, a simulated court case during which the course participants will assume the role of one of the lawyers in the proceedings.

The aim of the course is to improve the oral fluency of the participants’ English with regard to higher register language and to instill them with a great deal more confidence with regard to presenting legal issues in English. The course will build upon the lexis and substantive law attained in the level 3 (JUR) specialised courses and should ideally be taken after the level 4 (JUR) course ‘Legal Writing and Drafting’.
Assessment will be based upon a number of compulsory presentations and the final moot court hearings.
