Message from the Dean

School of Law, CHRIST (Deemed to be University), through its five-year law Program, has carved a space for itself in the top league of premier law schools in India.

Dr Jayadevan S Nair

BA LLB, LLM, Ph.D

The school molds its students through a combination of exposure to the advanced syllabus, clinical legal education programs, and faculty monitored participation in curricular and extra-curricular activities. The syllabus for the five-year program goes far beyond the basic requirements of the Bar Council of India reflecting the current trends and demands of academia and the industry. Besides having a league of highly qualified faculty, the educational process is supported by a library equipped with a rich depository of online and offline resources. The commitment to excel is evident in the challenging yet smooth transition to the online mode of education in the wake of the adversities thrown up by the pandemic. The School of Law will strive to work with an untiring commitment to the cause of rule of law and promotion of excellence in the realm of legal education in India.
