Description:

The aim of the seminar in Administrative Law is to deepen the study of administrative procedure in the Republic of Croatia through the study of the General Administrative Procedure Act as a basic and general administrative procedural law.

Namely, every citizen participates in various administrative procedures several times during his life, and it is especially important that law students have specific knowledge related to administrative procedure. The seminar consists of a theoretical and a practical part. In the theoretical part, students listen to presentations by other colleagues and / or teachers on selected topics.
