The syllabus of the courses at bachelor, master and doctoral level of law studies will be deepened by issues in the field of European monetary law, by organising the following deliver-made courses in the form of lectures and training teaching activity:
At the Jean Monnet module, students will study the issue of normative and economic efficiency of fiscal rules in the European Union and their impact on domestic monetary legislation, as well as the law of the European Central Bank, which in the conditions of globalisation of economic and monetary flows disintegrated from general monetary law as an independent scientific discipline. Also, for the first time, students will have the opportunity to get detail acquainted with the characteristics and outcomes of monetary disputes in which the implementation of active and passive procedural legitimacy of European monetary agents is fully implemented and the monetary jurisdiction of the European Court of Justice, as well as legal mechanisms of European economic governance in the European Union, i.e. interstate agreements that are in the function of ensuring legal and economic stability in the EMU. The courses will be attended by students of all levels of study, as well as lawyers from practice.

Through the research and study of the new legal discipline of Monetary Law in domestic jurisprudence, academia, and practice by following European requirements of systematic, comprehensive, multidisciplinary and consistent legal education, Module shall provide its contribution in development of domestic legal thought.
It is expected that by mastering the Jean Monnet module, course participants can successfully: 1) monitor, critically research and analyse both classical and contemporary trends in the legal regulation of EU monetary flows and policy; 2) competently, scientifically, and argumentatively discuss, research and present the results of their scientific work that will contribute to the development of scientific thought in the field of studying EU monetary law; 3) work on research, organisation and optimal monetary management, monetary advisory and similar activities that are covered by the content of the Jean Monnet module.
