In recent months, we have hosted specialists in various fields of law who, with their vast experience and expert knowledge, introduced students to current issues such as criminal law on social media and the European Pillar of Social Rights.

We are pleased to announce that in the 2025/2026 academic year, we will once again be hosting experts from abroad during the next series of Guest Lectures!
