Learning unit contents
The course covers the law of statutory and supplementary pensions for employees, self-employed persons and statutory employees. It also covers some aspects of comparative law and European law. In addition to legal techniques, the course aims to introduce students to the major social, economic, financial and political issues of this branch of social security, by far the most important in budgetary terms.
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
At the end of the course, students should be able to give an accurate account of the legal regime of pensions discussed in the course, to reason autonomously on a casus related to the topic and to propose informed and lucid reflections on the issues at stake in pension systems.

Documents will be made available to students in good time to help them organise their course notes.
Oral examination. The teacher reserves the possibility of replacing the oral exam by a written exam depending on the number of students. The assessment may also be linked to the submission of a written assignment.
Students may use codes or a collection of legal texts without annotation or personal comment, except for article-to article references. Blank Post-it notes are allowed. The use of fluorescent markers or underlining is permitted.
Among the main evaluation criteria are the student's ability to develop legal reasoning, explaining the arguments supporting it, articulating the arguments in a logical, rigorous and coherent manner.
