The Law of Financial and Economic Governance in the EU
Start date: Sep 1, 2014, End date: Aug 31, 2017 PROJECT  FINISHED 

The proposed teaching module entitled “The law of financial and economic governance in the EU” aims at the development of a specialised course within the framework of the LLM with specialisation in EU law, at the School of Law of UCLan Cyprus. This programme will be given a specific and unique focus, based primarily upon research-informed teaching on the law and governance of finance and economic policy in the EU, in the global and multidimensional context of the financial and sovereign debt crisis in the EU and beyond. The module will be taught in English and will be open to graduate and postgraduate students from all over the world. The expertise of the coordinator will be used to cover both the relevant constitutional and institutional aspects of EU law and governance (objectives, institutions, instruments, competences, division of powers, public and private enforcement of EU law and effective judicial protection) as well as the more substantive aspects of EU financial and economic governance (EU economic and fiscal policy; EU banking and financial services regulation; institutions, principles and policies, mechanisms; implications on Member States and their people and on private actors). This module will also give the opportunity to students, professionals and the wider public to take part in expert seminars, guest lectures, roundtable discussions and a conference on the topic, as well as to contribute actively to an open access online platform, created and supported by the module. New technologies will be used throughout and include a whole range of online support tools available on campus and remotely. Students on the module will be invited to write papers throughout the duration of the project, leading to the publication of the best contributions on the online open access platform (papers or conference proceedings). Finally, the module will lead to the publication of didactic materials as well as an edited volume on the topic.
