The Faculty of Law focuses its research priorities around its two research centers. Publications by members of the Faculty of Law and the research centers enrich academic discourse through their diversity. The Chaire Francqui, meanwhile, gathers prestigious events around eminent personalities, while the University of Namur's doctoral program in law offers a framework conducive to the flourishing of doctoral research.
CRIDS
The CRIDS is a research center belonging to the NADI Research Institute.
Center Vulnérabilités et Sociétés (V&S)
V&S is a university research center that takes an interdisciplinary approach to the relationship between vulnerability(ies) and society(ies).
Publications
Members of the Faculty of Law and the two research centers, as well as associated personalities, promote their work and presentations at colloquia and conferences through publications, whether in the works of the Faculty of Law of Namur, a collection edited by the Faculty, or in journals and books. In this respect, it is possible to consult the list of members' publications via their personal page or that of CRIDS and Vulnerabilities and Societies.
Travaux de la faculté
The aim of the "Travaux de la Faculté de droit de Namur" is to bring to the attention of the public the teaching and research carried out by members of the faculty or associated personalities. The collection is intended to be multidisciplinary. It includes works dealing with legal or law-related subjects, as well as texts introducing other disciplines. In this way, the Faculty of Law hopes to provide a wide readership with original, rigorous summaries not only of the law, but more broadly of the human sciences, whose purpose and methods cannot be ignored by the jurist.
.Francqui Chair
The Francqui Chair brings together several academic events around a personality invited by the University. In 2022-2023, in the Faculty of Law, this Chair was awarded to Professor Lucie Cluzel, from the University of Paris Nanterre.
These events are organized by the UNamur Law Faculty and the NADI/ CRIDS, more specifically led by Professor Elise Degrave and her research team in E-government.
Doctorates
Since the decree of September 5, 1994 on the system of university studies and academic degrees, the Faculty of Law has had the means to make full use of the cutting-edge fundamental research carried out within its walls. Since then, it has been able to award the degree of Doctor of Law, and the decree of March 31, 2004 confirms this entitlement of the Faculty of Law to confer the academic degree of Doctor with thesis in the field of legal sciences.
The doctorate at Namur is organized in research themes where the Faculty has acquired recognized scientific competence. The doctoral student will find, in particular in the three research centers, the support and follow-up essential to the success of this large-scale project. A doctoral thesis requires the unstinting commitment not only of a researcher, but also of a promoter and the entire Faculty. With this in mind, in 2003 the Faculty adopted a Charter of Ethics for Doctoral Theses in Law, designed to clarify everyone's commitment.
