This course will provide students with an understanding of the primary aspects of designing, implementing, and maintaining effective corporate compliance programs that will withstand the test of time. The course will examine the key aspects that make up an effective program and comply with the Department of Justice (DOJ) expectations for such programs. Students will examine recent high profile case studies involving companies whose compliance programs were tested by courts, prosecutors, and the public at large. The course will also explore the public policy interests associated with giving corporations favorable consideration by prosecutors for having in place strong compliance programs in exercising prosecutorial discretion. Regular attendance, preparation, and participation in class will be required. The reading materials will be available via the course website. Class participation will count towards 20% of the final grade. There will be a take-home exam at the end of the semester.
