China Program

The two week program will run from May 22 - June 06, 2013 and will offer the  following courses:

•  Copyright in the Global Context 
•  International Bankruptcy

Courses are taught by faculty from Loyola Law School and Brooklyn Law School, with lectures by prominent Chinese legal scholars and judges.

Location

China is one of the world's fastest-growing economic powers, which makes it an excellent place to study international business transactions.  Students will live in Beijing, the capital of the People’s Republic of China, where all major government offices, including the Chinese Supreme Court, are located. Many of China’s largest state-owned companies, as well as international corporations and law firms, have their headquarters in the city. Beijing is the cultural center for Chinese politics, economics and education. It is a bustling city with a thriving population of approximately 19 million people. Students will have the opportunity to explore China’s ancient history — the forbidden city, great wall, Ming tombs, and many other important attractions, alongside modern developments like the Olympic Stadium.
