National Law University Jodhpur, in its two and a quart decade long academic odyssey, has
consistently and gainfully been a precursor in augmenting the ambit of academic delivery and
research in the copious and diverse spheres of law. The University has been a plenipotentiary
vouching for the highest learning and research standards in the academic fraternity while firmly
believing in the ideal of sound education being an expedient to the plenitudinous act of nation-
building. The chief traits of the University’s modus operandi include consistently driving
academic innovation and research; transforming the sphere of education for a prismatic future
consolidation of academic learning; inculcating the highest ethical standards in our talented
students and honouring the canonical legacy of legal systems while contributing proactively
towards its timely metamorphosis.
Our teaching pedagogy intermixes convention with innovation- with each teacher having the
liberty to chart the academic trajectory of the paper administered and training scholars to
analyze and rationalize, to critique and reform, to examine the micro as well as macro aspects
of a problem, to argue fluidly and pen fluently, using cutting edge technology and access to
some of the most fecund global legal databases. As a concomitant and outcome of the diverse
learning exposure given to them, our alumni today constitute the crème de la crème of the Bar
and the Bench, hold positions of eminence in national and international law firms and massive
global conglomerates, vocalize people’s rights as zealous advocates while sensitizing the
population by guaranteeing pro bono legal assistance, passionately advocate for environmental
protection and against carbon footprints while discussing the nitty-gritty of IP regimes and
international trade agreements with a consistent concern throughout for the future welfare of
the globe.
Our graduates, at the zenith of their skills and acumen after vigorous years of training, are
sought after by top global law firms and have attained leadership roles at eminent social justice
organizations, law firms, NGOs, governmental entities and academic institutions. Jobs at
prestigious international law firms like Allen & Overy, Herbert Smith Freehills and Linklaters
LLP have been secured by our meritorious and assiduous scholars while others have gone on
to work towards partnerships in leading national law firms. A plethora of national and state
administrative and judicial service officers boast of receiving tutelage at this institution which
proudly proclaims its motto as ‘Knowledge is Empowerment’. The accolades are plentiful and
gratifying and yet our students consistently continue to make a mark not just professionally but
also philanthropically by displaying their proclivity for universal empowerment and progress
through the Legal Aid and Awareness Committee (LAAC).
The zeal for acquiring higher education and entering the hallowed precincts of research also
remains unwavering in our young Turks and the Graduating batch of 2022 received offers from
King’s College, Georgetown University, Leiden University, Northwestern University, the
London School of Economics and Political Science, the University of California, Los Angeles,
the University of Cambridge, the University of Oxford, Vanderbilt University, Warwick
University and many more institutions of eminence to provide impetus to their budding
professional careers.

A viogorous classroom environment coupled with our thriving research centers and programs
enrich our students’ education through daily lectures, roundtable discussions, and conferences,
and also serve as blueprints for resultant scholarly output and student involvement on issues
and activities in multifarious spheres of law. The ethos of learning on the campus is an enabling
one and all-embracing towards diverse perspectives, which is craftily imbibed and then
kaleidoscopically reflected in the dazzling display of our students’ excellence in curricular, co-
curricular and extra-curricular activities. Multitudinous research centers on campus function
individually and collectively to give the students an insight into the treasure trove of
interdisciplinary approach towards the study of law and new collaborations emerge regularly
with the latest being an MoU with National Forensic Sciences University (NFSU),
Gandhinagar, Gujarat an Institution of National Importance, to facilitate and promote studies
and research and to achieve excellence in the field of forensic science.

In furtherance of its zeal towards enhancement of scholarly research, the students and faculty
of NLUJ publish regularly in journals of national and international repute. The Corporate Law
Society and Constitutional Law Society engage in the most contemporaneous debates and brain
storming sessions in the respective spheres of Corporate Governance and Constitutional
mandate. The University also encourages quality publications and wide dissemination of ideas

Development (TL&D), Indian Journal of Arbitration Law (IJAL), Journal on Governance,
Comparative Constitutional Law & Administrative Law Journal (CALQ), Journal of
Intellectual Property Studies (JIPS), Indian Competition Law Review and The Indian Journal
of Legal Theory (IJLT).
The University passionately adheres to the policy of consolidating and supplementing
classroom learning by providing myriad pedagogical exposure to our students from
multitudinous spheres with a kaleidoscopic perspective, to help them make informed career
choices. In adherence of the same objective, the University regularly invites eminent speakers
with multifarious perspectives to share their wisdom. Regular academic events hosted at the
University are also curtain raisers to diverse spheres of thought and concern in the
contemporaneous realm of Law and help students analyze law in action. The organizational
endeavor, along with spirited participation, develops the co-curricular exposure of students and
serves them in good stead in the years ahead. The academic year 2021-22 witnessed the
