| Aims |
The class has as goal to enable the student to deepen his knowledge of the main taxes in the Belgian tax system, both in the sector of direct taxes (personal income tax, corporate income tax and tax on legal persons) as well as in indirect taxes (value added tax, estate taxes and registration taxes).
The student is brought to master the theoretical and practical concepts as stake in each of those taxes, in the furtherance of the instruction given in the basic course.
More precisely, the goals are the following ones :
- understanding and mastering the concepts specific to each studied tax;
- acquiring a rigorous in-depth knowledge of the legal rules and general principles taught;
- becoming able to analyze the case law implementing these rules and principles and to apply them to concrete instances;
- establishing links between tax law and the other areas of the law (civil law, commercial law, accounting law)
This class is part of a coherent option of three courses. The instructor of the courses constituting the option build up a teaching team : they jointly determine the contents and the basic methods of each class so as to ensure complementarity. The class is based on participative teaching methods (project or problem learning: commenting case law and authors, debating with guest speakers, conducting field studies
) enabling the student to develop in full autonomy critical, prospective and creative angles. The student is encouraged to participate in the class and to implicate himself in the learning, which has both an individual and a collective dimension. In this perspective, the instructors of the various options are in contact within the school concerning the pedagogical systems to be implemented.
