Documentary abstract — original language

This paper explores the integration of research into teaching within the field of legal education, focusing on the perspectives of research grant holders funded by the Polish National Science Centre (NCN). Drawing on surveys (n = 19) and interviews (n = 10) with grant holders working in Polish law faculties, this study investigates the extent to which they view teaching as a component of their professional practice and incorporate their research into their teaching practice. The findings reveal that participants perceive teaching and research to be mutually reinforcing, and see the integration of research into teaching as both a professional and an ethical responsibility in preparing students for the complexities of their future careers. However, their efforts to integrate research into teaching predominantly align with transmission-based approaches: ie disseminating research findings rather than actively engaging students in research processes. These results are discussed in the context of contemporary challenges in legal education, in Poland and globally. The paper concludes with recommendations for enhancing the integration of research into teaching to better equip law students with research skills necessary for professional practice.
