Projects and practice

Review complex case-support workflows and propose document-quality and deadline-risk controls.

Document the problem, working process, personal contribution, validation evidence and limitations. Individual contributions are assessed within team projects. Placements and external projects depend on actual arrangements.

Teaching and assessment

Legal reading, case seminars, document exercises and professional simulations develop reasoned analysis and practical judgement. Work remains within the applicable legal system and authorised professional responsibilities.

Assignments, case or laboratory work, staged projects and the final defence assess accuracy, methods, evidence quality, practical reliability and communication. Assessment weightings, reassessment and extension rules are published before teaching begins. Moodle may support resources, assignments, quizzes and feedback; specialist practical activities are assessed separately.
