The ULS program has a high connection with the environment and interest in bringing different types of knowledge to its students and the community in general. It is under this motto that the XII Interuniversity Course on Roman Law was developed.

The Law program of the Faculty of Social and Economic Sciences of the University of La Serena, held for the third consecutive year a meeting with the Schola Serviana Iuris Romani, who were in charge of carrying out the XII Interuniversity Course on Roman Law entitled “In personam agere: Litigation through personal actions and exceptions in Roman Law.

This activity allows for combining training knowledge with that necessary to acquire for professional development. Given this, the Director of the Law degree, Mg. Carlos Magna assured that “for the legal training process of our students, courses like these are irreplaceable, since they present us with an enriching dialogue between basic training subjects such as Roman Law and professional training subjects such as Civil law".

The meeting had a high participation of undergraduate students from the ULS Law program, plus the participation of students from other Law programs in the Coquimbo Region, who witnessed the master class by Dr. Cristián Aedo Barrena, from the Universidad Católica del Norte, on the “Personal Character of Roman Obligation and its Projection in Modern Law”, and Dr. Adolfo Wegmann Stockebrand, from the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile, who presented “Roman Law as a 'System of Actions' ': Reflections on the actio-obligatio in personam binomial.

The event allowed reflection and deepening on these important topics for the development of comprehensive professionals in the legal sciences in the hands of highly experienced people in the area.
