Science opened to students

Judicial Studies Institute (JUSTIN in short) organized at the Faculty of Law at Masaryk University its first JUSTIN Open Day, or open-door day at the Institute. It informed the students about research and opportunities they have throughout their studies, how to acquire international experiences and with options to participate in research activities. Discussions in smaller groups often turned to studies in Oxford, to publishing risks and also to funding of science and post gradual studies.
