Field Projects

The undergraduate course of FGV Rio Law offers mandatory practical curricular activities for students from the 1st to the 5th term, called Field Projects.

The Field Projects focus on the theory and practice of communication, allowing students to engage with current legal and social issues. Based on concrete legal challenges, students apply theoretical models learned in class to the development of products and the proposal of solutions.

Field Projects are developed in groups of 4 to 8 students, who are supervised by undergraduate professors or academic assistants with academic and professional expertise in different areas of Public and Private Law.

Every six months, the FGV Rio Law undergraduate course hosts an event to showcase the results of the fieldwork. This event is highly esteemed by the academic community, who selects the best works based on the quality of the products created and the impact in legal, cultural, social, and technological areas, fostering the exchange of knowledge and the interdisciplinary exchange between law and society.

I had the opportunity to participate in three field projects, and each one was amazing in its own way. Participating in the field project experience allowed me to deeply engage myself in learning various themes and their versatility simultaneously, since the idea is to bring practical elements not typically used in subjects and classes. Furthermore, in the field projects, collaboration is mandatory, which fosters interpersonal skills crucial in both personal and professional aspects of life.
From visiting a nuclear power plant to drafting an opinion for the approval of a bill, my learning was very rich and I had experiences that I would never have imagined in an undergraduate course of Law. It is an innovative project that shows the capacity of FGV Rio Law to reinvent its curriculum to further qualify the training of the student body. I am very grateful for the opportunity to participate.
