Center for Legal Practice-Education and Research
The Center was established thanks to a fund being set up after a donation from the parents of the late Katsuhiko Inagaki who died due to medical malpractice during the years when he was a student at Nanzan University. The Center aims to deliver practical education to postgraduate students in the Nanzan School of Law and to carry out practical research involving collaboration between legal practice-oriented instructors and research-oriented instructors. It also serves as a hub to enhance the skills of legal practitioners such as lawyers. In addition to holding mock questioning of doctors on matters such as incidents of medical misadventure and workshops for legal practitioners on amendments to civil law, the Center also works with the Faculty of Law by holding lectures for its undergraduate students to introduce them to some of the outstanding work being done by corporate lawyers.
