Research work

The challenges facing modern jurisprudence are so complex that their solution requires research skills. The very profession of a lawyer (investigator, prosecutor, judge, lawyer, etc.) is of a search, research nature.

A lawyer should be able to:

• collect regulatory and factual information;
• interpret and apply laws and other regulatory legal acts;
• legally correctly qualify the facts and circumstances;
• to uncover and establish the facts of offenses;
• systematically improve their professional qualifications, study legislation and the practice of its application, navigate in the specialized literature;
• analyze judicial and administrative practice. Therefore, a modern lawyer should possess not only the necessary amount of legal knowledge, but also certain skills of creative solution of practical problems. All these skills are acquired at the university through the active participation of students in research work.
