The civil law course is biennial and consists of two courses. The subject of "Civil Law II" course is contract law.

At the end of the course, students are called upon to demonstrate that they have: a) knowledge and mastery of contract law; b) autonomous capacity for critical in-depth study of the principles and rules of contract law in the light of the contributions of scholars and case law; c) ability to use legal language appropriately; d) ability to solve questions relating to the subject of contract law;
e) ability to link the principles and rules of contract law with other civil law subjects, demonstrating to know how to correctly frame the cases under study in the system of rules and principles of Italian private law.
The course deals with the fundamental notions of contract law, with particular reference to: structure; essential elements; negotiations and bargaining; invalidity and inefficacy; qualification and interpretation; effects; essential and accidental elements; pathologies and termination.
The course takes place over 40 hours in the first semester. Lessons will be delivered through frontal teaching. During the lesson, the professor will show a power point presentation that will be uploaded to the e-learning platform of the course.
During the course there will be some theoretical lessons, aimed at illustrating the principles and rules governing the contract in general, and some lessons dedicated to the discussion of case law. The latter aim to promote the students' acquisition of legal argumentation techniques and critical capacity.
