Second-cycle degree courses
Law, Politics and International Studies
The Master's degree programme in "Global Food Law: Sustainability Challenges and Innovation" (LM SC-GIUR) aims to train professionals specialised in the food sector, examining the challenges of sustainability and innovation in the agri-food industry from various legal, political, sociological, agricultural and economic perspectives.
The course primarily aims to educate legal experts capable of addressing the needs of a society increasingly open to new professional roles across multiple disciplines. Therefore, it is characterised by strong interdisciplinarity, providing skills not only in law but also in areas related to the extensive field of food.
The course is distinguished by its focus on the quality of teaching, increasingly oriented towards a hands-on and experiential approach, and it offers opportunities for visits and internships in innovative companies, specifically within the food sector.
The Course is part of a broader project, Food For Future, for which the Department of Law, Politics and International Studies has been awarded the title of Department of Excellence for the five-year term 2023-2027 (https://www.foodforfuture.unipr.it/en/home )
A Course that has a marked multidisciplinary connotation, capable of enhancing the knowledge and understanding gained by students during the three-year period, allowing them to elaborate and apply it in an original and interdisciplinary form. A course that combines frontal lectures with activities of a laboratory nature and that is characterized by a great attention to the student, as demonstrated by the satisfaction declared by those enrolled in relation to the teaching activities. In order to create an additional opportunity for language learning six compulsory courses are delivered in English. Graduates will be able to direct themselves to multiple employment outlets, with particular reference to careers in international organizations.
The course includes theoretical-practical didactic experiments and maintains fruitful relationships with local agencies and institutions, with the aim of fostering encounters between students and the contexts of social service and programming. Particular attention is paid to orientation to the profession (with reflection meetings on social work and the evolution of the professional role of the social worker and, specifically, of the social programmer, and with field research actions within institutional and third sector structures aimed at the realization of experimental theses).
