EU Law and Economy Summer School (ELESS)

The Faculty of Law in Rijeka is the organiser and the holder of this life-long learning programme, which is implemented in cooperation with the Faculty of Tourism and Hospitality Management in Ika. This is the first such programme to be implemented in collaboration between two constituents of the University of Rijeka. It involves interdisciplinary approach to the teaching of various aspects of European union integration in the field of law and economy.

The programme takes the form of a summer school, which consists of two courses or modules: Legal Aspects of the EU and Socio-economic Aspects of the EU. Each module consists of various lectures and interactive workshops. This summer school aims to respond to the necessity of teaching law and economy of EU through a special life-long learning programme.

The programme is created with the aim of connecting these two disciplines and directed at practical challenges associated with the membership in the European Union, both from the perspective of the state, as well as from the perspective of an individual EU citizen. The programme covers different issues of EU integration processes and analyses them from various aspect, thus providing the participants with practical and applicable knowledge and skills needed in everyday life and doing business in the EU internal market. The programme is implemented in English and gathers participants from other EU member states and the region, thus promoting and strengthening regional cooperation and visibility of the University of Rijeka and the Faculty of Law in Rijeka. Upon completion of the course, participants acquire knowledge (factual and theoretical) and skills (cognitive) which enable them to understand, analyse, present and apply advanced EU legal and economic concepts in business surroundings and day-to-day life.  

The Programme has started in 2018 and around 50 students have taken part in the previous two editions coming from Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Slovenia and Italy.

We concluded the ELESS 2022 summer school with the Certificate award ceremony on Friday, 15 July 2022. An exciting week of excellent lectures and workshops, new friendships, ideas, collaborations and experiences in the beautiful Ika and Opatija is behind us. Our sincere gratitude goes to all the lecturers and colleagues for making this first post-pandemic ELESS edition happen, and to all our student participants for showing such keen interest and enthusiasm for the topics and for engaging in lively discussions. The Faculty of Law in Rijeka is grateful to our co-organisers and partners, the Faculty of Tourism and Hospitality Management in Ika, and to the Hanns-Seidel-Stiftung, Office in Zagreb, without whose support this summer school would not be possible.

We are looking forward to ELESS 2023!
