About the Organization

The National Law School of India University, Bengaluru (“NLSIU”), is the first national law university established in India. NLSIU has consistently been ranked No. 1 by the National Institutional Ranking Framework for the past three years.

The Karnataka Government established NLSIU on August 29, 1987 through a Gazette Notification, under the National Law School of India Act (Karnataka Act 22 of 1986). The Act is a unique legislation, incorporating complete administrative and academic autonomy with flexibility for innovation and experimentation in the pursuit of excellence by the University. NLSIU has also been granted “deemed university” status from the University Grants Commission.

About the Program

Moving from high school to law school is challenging for most students – and NLSIU’s Foundations for a Legal Education (FLE) can set you on the path to acquiring the skills and intellectual abilities you need to make this journey easy and effective. Over four rigorous weeks, the FLE Course will introduce you to:

• Read critically and analyse complex materials;
• Learn to contextualise, connect, and merge the quantitative and qualitative information;
• Write persuasively;
• Argue effectively; and
• Think like a lawyer!

The study of law demands specific skill sets that young persons may not have access to, or training in. Additionally, aside from those who study at schools that offer pre-law a course in ‘Legal Studies’, young persons may not have guidance on what studying law requires.

If you’re in the tenth standard or above at high school, and are curious about studying law, this course, from NIRF-ranked #1 Law School is for you! The FLE will help you develop life-long skills that will:

• Boost your ability to succeed at law school;
• Enhance your comprehension, articulation, and reasoning abilities; and
• Springboard your journey into the world of academia and the profession.
