About the University	The University of Aruba is an international university, a hub between Europe, the Caribbean and the Americas. Our students travel the world and study around the world. Our classrooms consist of local and international students and our staff comes from Europe, the US and other parts of the world, all bringing their own specialties and academic methods. Learning in an international classroom offers students the opportunity to increase their awareness and understanding of other cultures, promotes critical thinking, and helps to develop an appreciation for other points of view. And at the University of Aruba we understand that we need to work together to offer our students and staff a good academic education and atmosphere. The Faculty of Law of the University of Aruba has a wide range of cooperation agreements with different Dutch schools of Law and universities, such as: the University of Groningen. Courses are taught not only by faculty members of the University of Aruba, but also by visiting professors from various other universities. Even though some of the books of this study are in English, the language spoken and taught at the Faculty of Law of the University of Aruba is Dutch.
