School Overview
The Integrated 5-year Bachelor Degree Program in Law has transformed the quality of legal education. It was conceived with an objective to bring legal education as a complete professional course and provide the opportunity for a fresh 10+2 pass-out student to make an immediate career choice.
The interdependence between social sciences and law hardly needs to be articulated. With the rapid growth of the Indian economy and global business footprint, integration of management sciences, economics and commerce with legal education becomes a necessity to ensure qualified and skilled graduates to cater to diverse opportunities in the legal profession.
The School of Law has specifically designed three different Integrated Bachelor DegreeHonors Programs, viz., B.A.,LL.B.[Hons.], BBA.,LL.B.{Hons.], and B.Com.,LL.B.[Hons.], to prepare legal professionals for the diverse contexts.
