Why Law School?
"Law is not a profession for everyone. However for those with imagination and creative energy and capacity for hard work, as well as skills of argumentation and communication and a commitment to serve society the opportunities are limitless."
Qualifications in law offer attractive career avenues today. Gone are the days when a law graduate could only go in for legal practice or be a judge by joining judicial services.
The setting up of National Law Schools offering integrated 5 year law courses after 10+2 has revolutionised the legal education scenario in our country. With world class infrastructure, curriculum and faculty these Law schools have emerged as centres of excellence akin to IITs for engineering and IIMs for management education . In fact students at NLSIU, Bangalore are recruited at average annual salaries comparable to the top management schools. The versatility of the five year law course also opens a variety of career opportunities for students. Alumni of National Law Schools today are creating waves in the corridors of the Supreme Court, the various High Courts, the top Corporate Law firms and major corporates, agencies of the United Nations and several other reputed organisations.
