The course is divided into 12 modules, covering the full range of EU competition law and economics issues: joint ventures and horizontal cooperation agreements, vertical agreements and distribution networks, cartels, abuses of a dominant position, mergers and acquisitions, State aid, etc.
With 15 hours of taught seminar for each learning block, this programme seeks to offer the strongest possible training in the various disciplines of competition policy. Moreover, most learning blocks are placed under the aegis of both a lawyer and an economist in order to fully embrace the ever growing multidisciplinary nature of competition law enforcement.
