Introduction

This advanced master's degree covers public property law (land use planning, urban planning, land policy instruments, state ownership, etc.) as well as the many facets of environmental law (international, European, federal and regional law, etc.) and its interactions with other branches of law, from which it borrows certain techniques (tax law, criminal law, judicial law and civil liability).

Combining in-depth reflection and the examination of practical issues, the advanced master's degree provides a concise and rigorous overall view of the fields of law which tend to converge due to the cross-disciplinary nature of ecological issues. Particular attention is paid to the interactions between regulations governing land use and urban planning and those governing environmental law.
