Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

The class will provide an introduction into law for students of computer science and will cover a range of topics from data protection law to intellectual property law and regulation of artificial intelligence. Lectures will be held in cooperation with the staff of the Department of Innovation and Digitalisation in Law and therefore some of the lectures will be taught in English.
The lectures will be recorded. However, this excludes the short exercise sessions, which will take place at the end of certain lectures, where the students will be able to ask questions, discuss the topics covered in class with the lecturer, explore some example cases and get insights about questions and topics that can come up in the test.

The following topics will be covered in the lecture:
- The Austrian Legal System
- The European Legal System
- Fundamental Rights
- Data Protection Law
- AI Regulation
- Data Governance
- Platform Law
- Intellectual Property Law
- Contract Law and IT Contracts
- Consumer Law
- Labour Law
- Cyber Criminal Law
