The University of Pittsburgh School of Law, Touro College Jacob D. Fuchsberg Law Center, and the University of Zagreb Faculty of Law are pleased to present their first summer law program in Croatia: The Institute in International Commercial Law & Dispute Resolution. This four-week, five-credit program, taught by leaders in the field, provides a broad introduction to international business transactions, followed by a focused examination of the law governing international sales of goods and international commercial arbitration. The program also highlights a number of key legal instruments arising out of the work of UNCITRAL, the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law. The first three weeks of doctrinal instruction are further enhanced by a final week of skills training applying students’ newly acquired legal expertise to a simulated dispute arising out of an international sale of goods and subject to arbitration. The Institute offers focused and innovative legal educational training concentrating on a timely and exciting area of law—all in a perfect setting.

The program begins with a week in Zagreb, Croatia’s vibrant capital. Zagreb is the cultural center of the country, as well as its largest city. Students and faculty then move to Zadar, where they will spend the final three weeks of the program on the Adriatic Sea’s Dalmatian coast. Zadar is a walled city of less than 100,000 people situated on a peninsula steeped in history. The second and third weekends of the program include group excursions to other Dalmatian coast locations and a nearby archipelago and its surrounding waters.
