    Information

    Aims, contents and method of the course

    Deepening and expansion of the section "Constitutional Law" in Basic Course I.
    The aim of the lecture is to familiarise students with the legal order of the most important basic ecclesiastical institutions. Building on the teaching of the Second Vatican Council on the Universal Church, which consists in and of the Particular Churches (cf. LG 23), canon constitutional law normatively implements the guidelines and findings of ecclesiology. The one People of God consists of clergy and laity, who each participate in the mission of the Church in different and interrelated ways. The fundamental rights and duties of all believers within the Church are therefore just as much in focus as the competences of the Pope and bishops. Structures of synodality and participation form the "constitution" of the Church, as does the fact that the Catholic Church consists of 23 "churches sui iuris".

    Assessment and permitted materials

    An examination in English must be arranged separately. The correct canon law terminology must also be used in English.
    The examination takes place as an oral attendance examination (3 questions, 15 min). A current edition of the CIC will be provided. If attendance examinations are not possible due to university regulations, the examination will take place digitally.

    Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

    The examination comprises three questions from the entire subject area of the lecture. For a positive performance, all three questions must be assessed positively.
    A “very good” performance means the ability to critically apply the course material to specific questions. Simply listing key words is not sufficient.

    Examination topics

    Content of the lecture as a whole; the presentation used and successively put online is an integral part of the lecture, as are materials published on moodle and files labelled there as compulsory or "required" reading.
