The teaching methodology used aims to follow the spirit of the Bologna model (continuous assessment). The theoretical knowledge from the lectures is also refined and deepened by the knowledge from the small-group classes (knowledge is knowledge). The approach seeks an interconnection between theory and practice. The tutorial system will be the same as the University's. The training activities will be those typical of both lectures and small-group classes, combining various teaching techniques. To this end, in addition to the case study method, other techniques such as guided readings, workshops, debates, films, etc. may be used. Knowledge of the press, specialized videos, websites of organizations and governments, international practice, etc. may be included. The schedule details possible activities, which the lead professor may change. The schedule will be applied flexibly and will always adapt to the evolving teaching environment. For example, the lecture and small-group classes should never be allowed to go uncoordinated.
