Faculty of Law

Research centers at the Faculty of Law

With research units and research centres, the faculty sets institutional priorities in connection with research topics or entire research disciplines. The faculty members thus make an important contribution to the promotion of interfaculty research in the relevant areas of law.

The diversity of these institutions also reflects the broad research spectrum of all faculty members.

The members of all institutes and research centres contribute to providing students with a varied curriculum through lectures, tutorials and publications.
