Objectives

Administrative Law  – a subject of the 2nd year of the degree in Law – studies the Administrative Law in general. The program develops the following major points: an approach to the notion of public administration, administrative law, administration systems, genesis and development of Administrative Law and administrative organization. 
The discipline has also to deal with the scope of administrative jurisdiction, the organization of administrative courts and how they operate and the respective legal procedure. Since this is a reform we are referring to, it is worthwhile and necessary to start with a dogmatic construction that sheds light on and increases understanding of the topics to be discussed. Special attention will be given to studying special administrative action and the string of new questions regarding the object of the administrative procedure, legitimacy and carrying out of sentences. Because administrative justice is guided by the principle of full and effective jurisdictional protection, it is extremely relevant to understand the role played by administrative judge, as well as the proof, namely in the provisional measures

Learning outcomes and competences

In line with the Program, it is a discipline essential for the formation of any lawyer, seeking to provide the necessary competencies, both theoretical frameworks, as the jurisprudential practice.
