National Law School of India University (NLSIU), or simply the National Law School(NLS), is a public law school in Bangalore Karnataka, India. The school is one of the leading law schools in India, consistently ranked #1 in the National Institutional Ranking Framework.

Contents

The university was established by the NLSIU Act of 1986, which was enacted by the Karnataka Legislative Assembly. The school offers a five-year undergraduate Bachelor of Arts–Bachelor of Laws programme (BA.LLB) and a postgraduate single LLB programme, both of which qualify graduates for an admission to the bar.

Spread over a lush 23 acres, the campus houses India's largest legal library and hosts some of the country's well-known competitions and events, including the NLS Debate and Strawberry Fields festival.

The NLSIU is the only Indian institute to have won the Philip C. Jessup International Law Moot Court Competition, having done so in 1999 and 2013. Furthermore, 25 alumni have been Rhodes scholars.

History

The National Law School was founded after two decades of work by lawyers including former Chief Justice Mohammad Hidayatullah, Ram Jethmalani and Upendra Baxi, who petitioned the Legal Education Committee of the Bar Council of India to establish a university to rival Harvard Law School. [2] Subsequently, the Bar Council of India Trust and Government of Karnataka reached an agreement to found the first National Law University in Bangalore. [3] In 1986, the National Law University of India was established under the leadership of its founder, then Vice-Chancellor N. R. Madhava Menon. [4]

Menon ensured that the teaching at the university was based on the case method at Harvard rather than the traditional lecture format that was then rampant across Indian law schools. He also introduced to the university the concept of collaborative teaching, wherein more than one professor would conduct classes, with different professors taking and arguing contradictory positions in jurisprudence. [5]

The first batch of undergraduate law students were enrolled in 1 July 1988. Classes commenced before the school's buildings had been fully constructed, with lessons delivered at the Central College of Bangalore University until November 1991. Thereafter, the school moved to its current location in the Nagarbhavi suburb.

In 1995, the first UNHCR Chair for Refugee Law was inaugurated at NLSIU, [6] which serves as the Asian Centre for Refugee Law. [7] Professor N. Subramanya worked on key issues pertaining to refugees during his tenure. [8]

Administration

The Chief Justice of India is the Visitor and de facto Chancellor of the school, with the ability to adjudicate and advise the operations of the school. [9] The Vice-Chancellor of the school is the chief executive of the university and manages the day-to-day operations of the school. The school has had five more Vice-Chancellors since Menon, namely N. L. Mitra, A. Jayagovind, G. Mohan Gopal, R. Venkata Rao, and Sudhir Krishnaswamy, who took over in 2019. [10]

The school's administration is overseen by the General Council, Executive Council, Academic Council, and Finance Council. [11] The Councils consist of individuals such as the Chief Justice of India, the Chairman of the Bar Council of India, Judges of the Supreme Court of India, the Advocate General of Karnataka, Secretaries and Ministers of the Government of Karnataka and other eminent legal scholars. [12]

Admissions

Admissions to 5-year undergraduate programme are based on the Common Law Admission Test-undergraduate (CLAT-UG). For the 2023-24 session of the undergraduate CLAT, a total of 56,472 students competed for 2644 total law seats, out of which 240 were offered at the NLSIU. [13] In 2020, the NLSIU attempted to withdraw from the CLAT, announcing that it would hold its own entrance examination. This decision was soon overturned by the Supreme Court of India. [14]

The postgraduate version of the CLAT screens candidates for the Master of Laws Programme. Candidates of the three-year bachelor of laws, Master of Public Policy, and Doctor of Philosophy are screened by the National Law School Admission Tests (NLSAT) are conducted.

In June 2021, the NLSIU announced a plan to increase the number of students enrolled on campus from 660 in 2021 to 2,200 in 2028, led by increasing the batch sizes of the BA-LLB cohort and the establishing of a three-year LLB course. [15]

The NLSIU has preserved 25% of seats for home students of Karnataka across admissions, but the Government of Karnataka has reservations on the manner in which this policy has been implemented. [16]

In the first two years, students attend courses in history, political science, sociology and economics, alongside legal subjects such as tort, contract and constitutional law. In the subsequent three years, students mainly study legal subjects.

In 2017, NLSIU overhauled its academic curriculum to allow students to choose a greater number of their upper-year courses, allowing students to explore areas of interest to a greater degree. [17]

Postgraduate

NLSIU launched a three-year LLB programme in 2022, making it the first National Law University to do so. [18] [19]

The school offers a one-year LLM by coursework, a two-year MPP, and doctorate programmes. [20] [21] [22]

In addition to the above full-time programmes, the school's continuing education department offers several part-time distance learning programmes, including a Masters in Business Law and postgraduate diplomas in various fields. [23]
