General information
The Institute for the Law of the Sea and International Marine Environmental Law (ISRIM) offers a summer school on the law of the sea: "Jean Monnet Summer School on European Union and the Law of the Sea" (EU-LoS) in co-operation with the University of Genoa, the University of Applied Sciences Bremerhaven and the University of Bremen. The summer school on European Union and the Law of the Sea will be held for three consecutive years, alternatively, in Italy and Germany.
The summer school aims to attract doctoral and post doctoral students, as well as researchers and young professionals not only in law, political science and international and European studies, but also from other sea-related sectors, such as maritime economics and marine science, where an understanding of the impact of EU law is becoming more and more essential. It will consist of 56 hours of teaching activities inclusive of traditional ex cathedra lectures, classroom training and workgroups and a half-day workshop.
The workshop on “European Union and the Law of the Sea: From Principles to Practice” will be held in Genoa, on 4 September 2015, as an integral part of the summer school.
