Project-Based Learning Philosophy

The department emphasizes project-based learning as a core component of the curriculum. Students engage in both individual and collaborative projects that simulate real-world legal challenges. These projects are designed to enhance critical thinking, communication, and problem-solving skills essential for legal practice.

Mini-projects begin in the second year and involve analyzing specific legal issues or case studies. For instance, students might examine a recent court ruling, draft a legal opinion, or propose reforms for existing legislation. These projects are evaluated based on clarity of argument, research depth, and adherence to ethical standards.

The final-year thesis is a significant component of the program. Students choose a topic related to their area of interest within law, work closely with a faculty advisor, and produce a substantial piece of original research. The thesis process includes proposal development, literature review, data collection, analysis, and presentation. This culminates in a formal defense before a panel of experts.

Project selection is guided by student interests, faculty expertise, and current legal trends. Students can propose topics aligned with their career goals or choose from suggested themes provided by the department. Faculty mentors are assigned based on specialization and availability to ensure high-quality guidance throughout the project lifecycle.
