Law has traditionally been perceived as an autonomous discipline having distinctive style and methods. Unlike the traditional focus of lawyers with ‘black letter law’, the modern legal ecosystem demands a different approach. For lawyers, judges and lawmakers to truly appreciate the depth of laws, it is imperative to have an inter-disciplinary approach.
In an increasingly complex and interconnected world where efforts to understand and define the changing dynamics of economic, technological and financial environments are already underway, lawyers need to equip themselves with additional knowledge of business management, commerce and policy making.
Existing law schools in the country are still oriented towards theory-based learning, whereas the need of the hour is the dissemination of practical and research-based legal knowledge. We have developed our curriculum in consultation with leading practitioners in the field to ensure that our students approach law not merely as an academic subject to be mastered but as budding practitioners learning the skills of the trade.
This is BMU method of striving for excellence through a curriculum and pedagogy based on innovation, creativity, multidisciplinary approach and experiential learning. BMU’s School of Law offers a higher level of understanding of the complex nature of the problems in society and develops the capacity in its students to provide solutions to these problems in the years to come.
The law needs to be looked at not merely as a solution to the problems of chaos and ordering in society but as a tool for enhancement of the lives of individuals. In our B.A., LL.B. (Hons.) program we facilitate our students to build a multi-dimensional approach to understanding law through the study of history, political science, sociology and economics.
For students interested in gaining deeper knowledge of business and commerce along with legal education, we offer B.B.A., LL.B. (Hons.) in collaboration with the School of Management at BMU. Students are introduced to business and commerce by expert faculty from School of Management, facilitating truly interdisciplinary approach to learning law.

For Law students, this facility is currently available for the First-year students only. Availing the hostel would be mandatory for students, second year onwards.
