Jurisprudence

The Department of Jurisprudence as a component of the integral educational system of the university is designed to ensure the implementation of the PUET mission, namely

development of the potential and opportunities for self-realization of students and staff in the process of their joint innovative, organizational, scientific and educational activities;
training of specialists in the field of jurisprudence, who should ensure the realization of constitutional rights, freedoms and obligations in the XXI century.

Realizing the impossibility of achieving this ideal without a profound legal education and upbringing, we can define the main tasks and activities of the Department of Jurisprudence aimed at achieving the goal of providing students with comprehensive legal knowledge, instilling skills in the skillful application of theoretical provisions in the course of practical activities.

The priority area of the department’s work is research on the topic “Traditions and Innovations in the Development of Private Law in Ukraine: Educational Dimension” (state registration number 0112U005870). Over the past few years, the Head of the Department, Professor Lavryk H. V., has prepared doctoral dissertations on “Legal regulation of freedom of conscience, religion and activities of religious organizations in Soviet Ukraine (1919-1929)”; Professor Gladkyi S. O. “Cooperative legislation in the Ukrainian SSR in the 1920s as a phenomenon of socio-historical reality”; PhD thesis by Associate Professor Kulchii O. O. “Legal regulation of contractual relations of compulsory insurance of civil liability of owners of land vehicles”.
