Programmes

In the societal domain, the areas of psychological, sociological, economic, political, historical and legal aspects overlap and affect each other. Anyone pursuing a career in law needs a firm understanding of the aspects of human thought, cultural practices and behavioural patterns to be able to interpret and utilize legal jurisprudence for the benefit of their clients. A study of law is incomplete without knowledge of the nuances of people’s thinking, social fabric, historical evolution of particular societies, and economic impacts on lives.

The five-year integrated Bachelor of Arts and LLB programme offered by the Department of Law, at our BA LLB College in UP, has been put together to address the same issue. Students within this course are exposed to the principles of socio-legal, sociological-legal, psychological-legal, monetary-legal and governance aspects so they can become adept legal professionals. The programme includes subjects such as Political Science, Sociology, Family Law, Contract, History, Economics, Law of Torts including the Motor Vehicle and Consumer Protection Act, Penal code, Criminal procedure, Constitutional Law, Political Science, Psychology, Administrative Law, Evidence Law, Environmental Law, Jurisprudence, Law of Taxation, Company Law, and Land Law.

The students undertake many practical immersions in this degree through Moot Courts, getting insights into intellectual property rights, ethics, alternate dispute resolution, and legal drafting. They shadow practicing lawyers and visit courts, attend workshops and seminars conducted by invited professionals from legal, economic, psychological and sociological backgrounds. They also get access to e-journals like AIR, SEC, company cases, Yale Law Journal, Indian Bar Review etc. The students take electives based on their interests at Invertis University, a leading name among the BA LLB Colleges.
