In 1998, the rector of the University decided to create a special department – the Department of Law. It was connected with the need to expand and deepen the legal knowledge among student youth, the opening of new specialties that needed a more comprehensive legal training. These tasks were the basis for creation of the department, headed by candidate of philosophical sciences – Perevalova Ludmila Viktorovna, at the time she was assistant professor of sociology and law. It was the first time creation of a legal department in a technical high institution.
First of all it was necessary to form the staff of the department, to develop training programs and plans of the many disciplines that have not previously been taught at the university, to repair and prepare the premises of the department. All this was done. And from the new academic, the department started working. When the department was then only five teachers who worked in the department of sociology and law. During the years of existence of the department, the number of teachers increased, because the number of training courses that are taught in different departments and specialties increased.
Over the years, the university opened new faculties and new departments. The University trains specialists from almost all fields, and this requires new judicial disciplines. New courses being developed and taught considering the interests of the individual faculty and department. The main criterion of this approach is that each student received the necessary knowledge and skills so that he could use them in his professional activities. For students of the Faculty of Economics, Faculty of Business and Finance, taught courses such as “Law”, “Economic and Financial Law,” “Business Law”, “Labor Law”, “Environmental Law” and for specialists in the field, “Administrative Management” masters and other specialties are taught the course “Legal maintenance administrative activity.” When conducting seminars the main emphasis is on the individual work of students. To this end, the department had developed the test tasks, practical tasks, which make students to think independently, to analyze the existing legislation and to apply it in practice. Students learn to make various contracts, statements of claim, legal documents. To enhance individual work of students lecturers of the department are using business games. So together with the Department of Accounting and Auditing Economics Department seminars are held on “The tax control.” While preparing for the lesson students learn the Tax Code, tax documents, prepare for tax audits.
