Why study the Specialization in Oral Litigation at UNINAVARRRA?
UNINAVARRA's Postgraduate Program in Oral Litigation is distinguished by the innovation of the systematic teaching of oral skills for the exercise of the new law and its diverse contexts, such as the intervention before Courts, Tribunals and Prosecutor's Offices, Attorney General's Offices, Comptroller's Offices and other public or private entities where justice is administered.
The Specialization in Oral Litigation of the Navarra University Foundation guarantees the student an own space for academic practices, called the laboratory of the Oral Trial Room of UNINAVARRA, which has technological and technical characteristics at the forefront of the courtrooms used in the different trial scenarios in the country, which allows the participant to appropriate the use of the different techniques of the Oral Trial.
The object of study itself is considered a distinctive and novel factor, consistent with the rigor and depth of the contents and innovative methodologies used in the oratory laboratory of the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences of the University Foundation of Navarra - UNINAVARRA. Oratory as a skill should be focused on knowledge and techniques necessary for the active intervention of the future specialist in all judicial or administrative contexts, since, with the passage from scripturality to orality, oratory becomes important to the extent that it allows the jurist the oral presentation required in the legal praxis, overcoming the failures that have been presented concerning the mechanical reduction of reading texts in the hearings (lecturality).
