Description
University Profile
The National Law University, established by National Law University Jodhpur, Act, 1999 (Act No. 22 of 1999), passed by the State of Rajasthan, is the fifth National University for Legal Education in the country following the institutions at Bangalore, Hyderabad, Bhopal and Calcutta. A University in ideal conditions draws its human resources at the levels of both faculty and student community, from the entire world. National law universities, only answers intention to do the same from the entire country following the traditions of Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) in technology education, Indian Institutes of Management (IIM) in the management education and All India Institute of Medical Science (AIIMS) in medical education. However, unlike IIT, IIM, & AIIMS, legal education is patronized not by the Union Government but by the state Governments. From that point of view, national law universities differ in origin and experiment. Presently these sister universities have only mutual understanding and cooperation on non-formal basis.
National Law University, Jodhpur is a bold experiment in the sense that it is truly multidisciplinary. Legal education, unlike many other streams of professional education like technology, medicine, or finance is a multidisciplinary education. Legal professional skills can be used by any other knowledge system. As for example, in the present growing complex world a substantive legal education is very closely linked with knowledge in technology and science. As it is, legal profession is based on the premise of certain social values that are built up in hundreds of years of sociological practices and ethos. The enormity of literature of interaction between law and medicine shows how intricately knowledge of law and medicine can be intertwined. This university shall endeavor to make a holistic effort to develop legal professional skills in all trans-border knowledge contexts.
Keeping this objective of multidisciplinary total education in view and the growing needs of legal profession in the global context various undergraduate, postgraduate, continuing legal education for various groups of interests, training courses and research programs would be designed in this university.
