EU LAW AND DIGITAL DATA
Module’s content for students who attended seminars and students who didn’t
The difference between students who attended class and sudents who didn’t doesn’t concern the module’s content but the procedure for the exam. While the module’s content is the same for both, students who attended seminars will only pass an oral exam (because they have already passed a written mid-term examination) while students who did not attended seminars will have to pass a full written exam.
This exam will be structured in two “open” questions and will be held in 1.15 hours.
