The red thread in law
Since 2022, the Faculty of Law has chosen a theme for the year that unites the entire Faculty, students and teachers alike, across all blocks. This topic will be exploited in courses, framings, assignments, and during lectures and cultural activities offered throughout the academic year. A new dynamic that makes the University of Namur's framing even more unique.
