Obsahem výuky jsou instituce EU, jejich postavení a kompetence, jejich vztah k vnitrostátním orgánům a jejich funkční provázanost. Po obecném vymezení nosných institutů se výklad zaměřuje na stěžejní rysy a principy práva EU, které z velké většiny vyplývají z judikaturní činnosti SDEU. Pojetí a význam jednotlivých kategorií základních práv občana členského státu a občana EU, jakož i související vztahy veřejné moci a jednotlivce i nadstátních aspektů práva EU. Procesní možnosti ochrany fyzických a právnických osob u soudních orgánů EU. Výklad by měl studentům umožnit pochopit pozici práva EU jako svébytného právního odvětví, které však tvoří integrální součást všech právních řádů členských zemí EU.
