European Union Law Lecture Notes

Aim

The aim of this page is to provide a set of notes that underpin some of the most important topics taught in undergraduate and some postgraduate courses in British universities. The notes are most certainly NOT comprehensive: the use of textbooks and other materials must accompany the notes if mastery of any topic is to be attained.  

Choice

 You have two choices:

1. If notes are required, you'll need Adobe Acrobat Reader to read and download them.  Click the 'Adobe Acrobat' button ONLY if you need to get your own copy.


2. For some lectures, you can download PowerPoint Presentations, if you have the software on your computer.  Where available, the PowerPoint presentations are always listed (2), after the lecture notes.
