Subject matter
Each of the sessions includes a technical part, with the participation of specialists in the relevant technology, such as engineers or economists, and a legal part, in which the challenges of that technology to the law are explained. The classes are dialogued and prepared in advance by the students, which allows them to learn more effectively.
