UproEU

Estonia has been a Member State of the European Union since 2004. EU law has been taught systematically mainly since 2003. For this reason very many practitioners and scholars have had limited training on EU law. To be able to continue providing comprehensive legal education at University of Tartu with an impact on all other fields of education, we need to introduce the EU law to a wider public through professional research publications (professional audience), popular science publications (general public) and pre-law-school activities for long-term sustainability (high school students).

Taking into considaration the corner stone of the project UproEU – engaging young talent to promote comprehensive understanding of EU law –  we are engaging current law students and recent graduates in organizing and teaching courses, coaching mooting teams, researching and writing publications on EU law. We believe that this approach of engaging our young professionals guarantees a much wider impact on the students, the legal market and the community. Young EU law professionals develop organically with the project. With this we engage young talent to promote comprehensive understanding of EU law – youth with a professional EU law attitude – UproEU. 

The general objective of the UproEU project is to advance the comprehensive studies of EU law.
