The examination is conducted through an oral interview.
All topics covered in the lecture will be examined.
During the oral interview, three general questions are normally asked (aimed at introducing a topic, e.g. the principles of environmental law, or a sector of environmental law, e.g. waste management regulations, or the 2022 constitutional reform of Articles 9 and 41), followed by some more specific questions that open up further avenues for in-depth study and allow the level of knowledge attained by the student to be assessed. Attending students will have the opportunity to study a specific examination topic in greater depth through the study of cases and materials provided and/or indicated by the lecturer in class and uploaded onto the E-learning platform; in this case, the first examination question will focus on the topic to be examined.
The examination aims to assess, in particular, the student's ability to
- find their way around environmental legislation, identifying the main reference regulations and the Authorities to which they must turn to obtain the various environmental permits
- understand and correctly use specialist terminology
- understand the purpose of the tools provided by environmental legislation
- identify technical/operational issues and the risks of sanctions underlying the application of environmental legislation.
