Further information

Sopimus on kaksipuolinen oikeustoimi, jolla luodaan oikeuksia ja velvollisuuksia. Sopimusoikeuden opintojakso auttaa ymmärtämään yleisiä sopimusoikeudellisia periaatteita sekä hahmottamaan sopimusosapuolten oikeuksia ja velvollisuuksia yksilön ja yrityksen näkökulmasta. Opintojaksolla käsitellään asioita, joita me kaikki tarvitsemme oikeuksiemme ja velvollisuuksiemme ymmärtämiseksi - yksilön ja yrityksen tasolla.

Jokainen meistä tekee sopimuksia jatkuvasti myös tietämättään. Mitä esimerkiksi tapahtuu, jos tilattu sähköauto jää saamatta. Kuka on vastuussa vai ei kukaan? Sopimusoikeuden opinnot eivät anna suoraa vastausta tähän kysymykseen, mutta opinnot suorittamalla saat vastaamiseen hyvät valmiudet.  

Tämä on Xamkin avoimen AMK:n tarjontaan sisältyvä opintojakso.
Xamkin tutkinto-opiskelijat eivät voi ilmoittautua avoimen AMK:n opintojaksoille.
