It has the objective of facilitating the efforts of students to deepen and reinforce the advocacy skills nurtured in other courses that deal with trial advocacy and appellate advocacy. Law schools are expected to design at least one thematic moot court course depending upon legal issues that need to be explored through research and advocacy from the perspectives of a petitioner and respondent. The themes might be Family Law, Successions, Law of Property, Contracts, Criminal Law, Human Rights, etc. based upon the area chosen by the law school. The other option could be thematic choice based on the law school’s plans to participate in national moot court competitions such as the one organized by APAP (Action Professionals’ Association for the People). The theme of the moot court can also be determined based on a law school’s plans to participate in regional and international moot courts. This reading material has two parts. Part I discusses the purpose of moot court and it deals with the phases of preparation and brief writing. Part II addresses Oral Rounds with particular focus on the Philip C. Jessup International Law Moot Court Competition which can be used as a sample thematic moot court competition with regard to guidelines and assessment mechanisms. Ethiopian law schools have been participating in various regional and international moot courts such as Philip C. Jessup International Moot Court Competition held in Washington DC, African Human Rights Moot Court Competition held in various African countries, ELSA (European Law Schools Association) Moot Court Competition (on International Trade) and others. Thematic moot court will indeed create a conducive training ground for students who aspire towards success in such national, regional and international moot court competitions.

DICKINSON LAW REVIEW THE IMPORTANCE OF TRIAL EXPERIENCE IN THE TRAINING OF LAW STUDENTS By FRANK SMITH* In the many years that I have been on the bench, I have on many occasions been called upon to sit as a judge in moot court arguments of students of the law schools of Philadelphia. In most instances I have been pleased with the evident preparation and the oral arguments of the students. The subject is usually one of interest and is calculated to display research and the ability and ingenuity of coun- sel. In most instances the students realize the point involved and know how to buttress their arguments with cases in point. The briefs they submit are generally good, well typed, and neat. So as far as moot court arguments are concerned, it is apparent that the instructors and professors of the law schools have done their work well.

Organised for the first time during the 1988-1989 academic year, this competition, which this year celebrates its 30th anniversary, has as its primary objective the promotion of practical knowledge of EU law amongst law students. Law students, who have already made their way through a tough selection of around 80 teams since September 2018 when the European Law Moot Court Competition was launched, will plead on 5 April before panels composed of Members of the Court of Justice and the General Court of the European Union. The competing teams represent eight universities from different countries. They won their respective Regional Finals which were held in February 2019 in Ljubljana (Slovenia), Madrid (Spain), Florence (Italy) and Athens (Greece). Students from all EU member states participated in the competition. Those who participated in the Regional Finals also included students from non-EU countries, notably the USA, Switzerland, Norway, Ukraine and Russia. The final is the last stage of this competition, which has been held at the Court of Justice since 1991. Unofficial document for media use, not binding on the Court of Justice.

    SMU LAW SCHOOL The Singapore Government, in a major review of the domestic supply of lawyers, confirmed a shortage of lawyers in Singapore. 2007 hence marked a major milestone in the development of legal education in Singapore – the setting up of the nation’s second law school. SMU is honoured to be entrusted with this important responsibility. As Singapore’s first private university and the only university here with a city campus purpose-built to its pedagogy of small class size and interactive learning, SMU will be extending its unique approach to its School of Law. SMU’s undergraduate law programme aims to mould students into excellent lawyers who will contribute significantly to society. The objective is to produce law graduates who have contextualised legal expertise and the ability to think across disciplines and geographical borders. In terms of pedagogy, SMU’s seminar-style learning will be put to good effect to nurture students who are confident, articulate and analytically agile. CONTENTS 03 Dean’s Message 04 Investing In The Fundamentals // Rigorous and Challenging Curriculum // Holistic Pedagogy & Course Assessment // Optional Second Major // Wide Range of Double Degree Options // Beneficial Internship & Community Service // Internship Partners 09 Commitment To Excellence // Scholarships & Awards // National & International Competitions // International Exchange 12 Career Prospects // Raising The Bar 13 Visionary Campus // City Campus // Facilities 15 Strengthening Our Relevance // Centre for Dispute Resolution // International Islamic Law and Finance Centre // Pro Bono Centre // Asian Peace-building and Rule of Law Programme 18 Heeding The Best // Advisory Board Members 19 Top Notch Faculty // Deanery // Faculty 24 The Fun Stuff // Beyond The Classroom Dean’s Message The School of Law was started in 2007 after a major review of legal education in Singapore concluded that it was timely to have a second law school in Singapore.
