The aim is to train students in the subjects covered by the programme through a teaching-learning system adapted to the new requirements of the Bologna process. In order to pass the course, students will have to acquire theoretical and practical knowledge. The practical knowledge will be obtained through the elaboration of simulated trials, critical commentary of sentences and writing (reports, complaints, demands, etc.). This theoretical-practical duality will allow the acquisition of general knowledge about competition law. In addition, students' hours of study will be taken into account to calculate the ECTS credits of the course. The course deals with a sector of the legal-marketing system of growing importance, so its mastery facilitates professional opportunities for future graduates.
