For your knowledge, the following arguments will not be in the exam: - European Economic Interest Group; - Consortium of entrepreneurs; - Temporary enterprises association; - Business networks; - European company; - Mutual Company; - "Società tra professionisti (STP)"; - Special operations. The detailed list of paragraphs to be examined will be communicated during the first lesson and through the e-learning platform, in order to facilitate the exact identification by the student and to take into account the contingencies related to the health emergency.

The course will consist of both explanatory lectures, which clarify the contents of the recommended textbooks, and single-subject lessons, in addition to the study of case studies and the conduct of exercises. The support material, uploaded on the e-learning platform, together with the lectures, will allow students to acquire the hermeneutic method and the correct use of the interpretative canons, which will be explained during the first lesson. The acquisition of this method will be evaluated during the final examination.

The exam consists of an oral interview in which the student must demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the main topics of Business Law. The student will have to be able to correctly use the juridical technical vocabulary of the subject. For the purposes of assigning a mark out of thirty, the following evaluation criteria will be taken into account: 1. Project work (0-2 bonus point). There are two moot court, which will take place as group work of analysis and discussion of jurisprudential cases. Moot court is assessed and the score achieved remains valid until September 2024 inclusive. The first lesson dedicated to the moot court includes the reading of the outline, the formation of the groups and the examination, by each group, of the questions of fact and law and leads to the presentation of the questions that each of the groups intends to submit to the college. Along with the track, in the first lesson, students are also provided with special "materials": in particular, photocopies of pronunciations and contributions of relevant doctrine on the subject. Students, however, are encouraged to search autonomously, between the first and the second lesson, even further material and not necessarily stop at the one distributed in the classroom. The second lesson is devoted to the discussion, which in turn is held in two stages: initial discussion by each group and, subsequently, replications. At the end of the exposition of each part, in fact, there is a second round of interventions to give the opportunity to each team to counter argue to the observations of the opponents and to respond to the solicitations of the judges. Indeed, the judges can ask questions and moderate the debate. The third lesson consists in the reading of the sentence/award (written) and in its commentary, but it occupies only a very first part of the lesson, which then continues in an ordinary way on new topics. Participation in the moot court and group work is mandatory and, if positively evaluated, will result in the candidate being awarded bonus points (up to a maximum of two) on the final vote. The maximum score - equal to two bonus points - will be awarded to students who, actively participating in the moot court, will stand out in arguing their thesis during the discussion or in the production of the final paper of the exercise; The score of only one bonus point will be assigned to other students who take part in the moot court in an active and profitable way. 2. Final test (100%). The final exam is oral and assessed as follows: knowledge and understanding of the institutes and the principles of the subject and ability to apply them to concrete cases (70%); ownership of the technical-legal lexicon, ability to consult and evaluate relevant sources, acquisition of the study method and the ability to use the hermeneutic method and interpretative canons (30%). Learning gaps concerning one or more notions or principles will lead to an insufficient evaluation, even in presence of a basic knowledge of the matter.
