Welcome to USD VICAM Online! The University of San Diego School of Law's
Vis International Commercial Arbitration Moot (VICAM) Team has created this site to provide information about our team, our Pre-Moot Competition, Pre-Moots around the world, and the Vis International Commercial Arbitration Moot Competitions in Hong Kong and Vienna. Be sure to have a look at our links section for a list of online resources for research, information on the main competitions, as well as links to commercial arbitration related organizations. Also, do not forget to browse our map of Pre-Moots around the World for some great opportunities to practice with other teams before the competitions in Hong Kong and Vienna. 
The Vis International Commercial Arbitration Moot team competes in the area of international commercial law and arbitration, also known as alternative dispute resolution. The study of international law is an exciting and relatively new field, offering amazing opportunities for those considering a career that can be practiced pretty much anywhere in the world. The mission of our team is to foster the development of international legal writing, arbitration, and oral advocacy skills among its members; to promote professionalism and academic excellence; to employ the talent and coaching of the faculty; to maintain the school’s outstanding reputation through international competitions; work in conjunction with other student organizations who have similar goals and interests, such that each member will be prepared to keep pace with the advancements of international law and commerce. The main competitions are held each Spring in Vienna and Hong Kong with over 275 law schools from more than 70 countries participating. Our team has performed very well in recent years. Ask anyone on the team, and they are likely to tell you that the VICAM team is the most rewarding part of law school. Some of us think that is a byproduct of not taking ourselves too seriously; others say it’s because we spend a few weeks overseas each year while everyone else is sitting in class. Please feel free to contact us if you have any comments, questions, concerns, or checks. |
