The educational objective pursued by the course is to provide students - in addition to the basic knowledge of the Italian tax system - with a "dynamic" method of studying the subject, which can be useful for autonomously dealing with tax issues in their future professional lives.
Course Prerequisites
For better learning of the subject, a good kwowledge of the institutes of Constitutional Law, Private Law and Commercial Law is required.
Teaching Methods
The teaching consists mainly of lectures given by the teachers, but with the integration of more participatory seminars for the study of case law.
Assessment Methods
Oral examination. Students must demonstrate not only a good basic knowledge of the tax legislation but also the ability to make the appropriate logical connections between the various topics and correct use of legal language.
