Module overview

Competition law, whether on an international or national level, is an important influence on companies' business strategy. Competition law plays a major role in trade and trade relations between countries. It is also an increasingly important element of the everyday life of businesses. The aim of the course is to give you a good understanding of competition law, with a primary focus on EU and US antitrust rules and cases for the purpose of either practice or research in the field.
