In the trend of globalization, experts need to tackle issues involving various disciplines of knowledge and skills. There are daily problems evolving from a matrix of contextual factors of cultural considerations needing legal solutions. This is a disciplinary society in which professionals may get lost in tackling problems generated from other fields. Without interdisciplinary & teamwork communications, law may become a problem itself rather than a solution to benefit other disciplines.
The idea of this course is to cultivate students in various fields and countries to work together to tackle global issues involving law as the last resort. In such interdisciplinary studies, law should be used as a tool for solving problems, rather than an authoritative knowledge to make people's lives difficult. Also, English is adopted as a tool of communication rather than the purpose of teaching. The English language should serve as the means to facilitate interactions in multi-cultural and multi-lingual environments which promotes teamwork. In international occasions, we need to use English because it is the most widely shared language for interactions.
For such a course to cultivate expertise with a global view, students from various countries should learn and appreciate cultures of each other, while promoting dialectics in the environment of interactive teaching and active learning. It is to challenge the stereotyped belief that there is only one truth in the regulatory world. Students will be led to appreciate the beauty of multi-dimensional truths.
在全球化思潮下，法治國家之規範內涵與執行，必須在多元文化的比較與辯證之間進行，正義的追求也需要藉由跨領域與跨文化的專業團隊合作進行，高等教育的重要任務之ㄧ，便是訓練此等具國際視野並能處理多元問題的專業知能與專業倫理。為達此教育目的，在跨領域知能的培訓之外，多元文化意識與辯證能力的養成乃是成敗關鍵，使用英文作為溝通、理解、討論及辯證之工具也是必要訓練內容。本課程之目標即在培育該等專業者的知能與素養，為此，參與者應是來自各學門與文化背景的學生（包括本國與境外生），教學方法應以引導思考與開發潛能的主動學習為主。本課程將就特定全球正義議題，首先邀請跨領域講師授與專業知能，進而引導學生各就其專業發現規範之問題並質疑規範之真理；隨之在獨立思考但合作學習的氛圍中，分小組搜集、整理、分析相關資訊，提出各種可行之解決方案，再進行互評、辯論，進而整合可證立之方案。
