Überblick: Das Besondere bei uns
What makes us special
The law degree programme in Giessen is characterised by a favourable ratio of teachers to students and, above all, by the ‘Giessen model’, i.e. intensive small group work with the responsible participation of students (management of working groups). As a result, the programme remains streamlined and manageable. A large number of practitioners (e.g. judges, lawyers, administrative lawyers) who are closely connected to the faculty are involved in the teaching programme. They provide students with a professional perspective on the law during their studies. The practical orientation of the department is also documented by the regular organisation of practitioner seminars in labour law, environmental law and criminology.
