The part-time doctoral programme in Law «Dr. iur.» serves to deepen students’ legal knowledge, to critically reflect on their work as researchers and to write a dissertation. The aim of the doctoral programme is for students to acquire the ability to deal with legal issues in an independent academic manner. They document this ability by writing their doctoral thesis (a monograph), in which they deal intensively with a specific topic. The in-depth examination of the relevant aspects of the dissertation topic, the elaboration and answering of the relevant questions and the publication of the research results obtained create added value, in particular for the institutions involved in legislation and the application of the law, but also for the economy and civil society.
