Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Participation in the Willem C. Vis Commercial Arbitration Moot Court as part of the team of the University of Vienna.
The participation fosters the study of international commercial law and the CISG through its application to a fictitious case. In the course of the Moot Court, participants are required to write two memoranda - one for the claimant, one for the respondent of the case - and prepare the pleading for the final, taking place in Vienna in April 2025.
For all information regarding the Moot Court and the application process, please visit "Über den Vis Moot" (zvr.univie.ac.at) or refer to vismoot.zvr@univie.ac.at

Assessment and permitted materials

Joint research and writing of two memoranda (to be handed in on December and January respectively); preparation of the oral pleadings.
The students will be graded based on their participation in both the written and oral phase of the Moot Court. While these criteria are weighted equally, there will be no further (oral or written) examinations.
