This module provides students with a comprehensive understanding of the legal frameworks that underpin modern business practice. It explores the principles of company law, employment law, and the law of obligations, with a special emphasis on corporate governance, directors’ duties, and the protection of shareholder and employee rights.
Students will develop the ability to:
-Analyse the legal aspects of corporate management and decision-making;
-Evaluate statutory and case law in areas such as shareholder remedies, contracts of employment, and unlawful dismissal;
-Classify and connect different areas of business law, including company law, employment law, and ethics in legal practice;
-Apply theoretical knowledge to real-world scenarios through case studies, problem-based learning, and interactive class discussions.
By the end of the module, students will not only understand the black-letter law but will also critically reflect on ethical, professional, and social responsibilities within corporate and business contexts. The course is designed to equip students with the legal literacy and analytical skills needed to navigate an increasingly complex business environment.
