Negotiation Theory and Practice
Through simulated exercises, students develop confidence as negotiators and the skills to put deals together or resolve disputes and legal claims.
Mediation Theory and Practice
This course examines the dynamics, benefits, constraints, and skills related to third-party intervention in the resolution of legal disputes. There is an emphasis on learning through simulation exercises drawn from labor, family, and commercial areas.
