The scientific and research activity is interdisciplinary. This is because it covers several legal subdisciplines: substantive criminal law, fiscal criminal law, criminal procedural law and criminal executive law. Thus, the tasks of individual faculty members are carried out in several research areas, such as substantive criminal law sensu largo, stage forms of offences (D. Mucha, prof. UO, Dr. Paulina Banaszak-Grzechowiak, Professor Z. Kwiatkowski), the principle of collegiality and its guarantee character, contradictory interests of defendants and the freedom to choose a defence counsel (dr M. Kościelniak-Marszał), respect for human rights in criminal proceedings and compulsory defence in executive proceedings (dr M. Prusek), evidentiary proceedings before the court of appeal in criminal proceedings (mgr A. Wączek).
Teaching activities include lectures on substantive criminal law, criminal procedural law, corections law, and the system of legal protection bodies.
