National Law University Jodhpur

About

National Law University Jodhpur (NLU Jodhpur), established in 1999, is one of the premier National Law Universities in India and a top-ranked institution in the NIRF law category. Located in the vibrant Blue City of Jodhpur, adjacent to the Rajasthan High Court, NLU Jodhpur benefits from an ideal legal ecosystem that provides students with unparalleled exposure to the judiciary, legal practice and governance. The university was set up with a vision to produce not merely competent lawyers but ethical leaders, policymakers and change-makers who will contribute to the development of law and justice in India and internationally. The flagship BA LL.B (Hons) five-year integrated programme is consistently one of the most sought-after legal education programmes in India, with CLAT cutoffs placing NLU Jodhpur among the top five NLUs. The university also offers LL.M, MBA (for law students) and PhD programmes. NLU Jodhpur is particularly renowned for its Corporate Law, Intellectual Property, International Law and Commercial Arbitration programmes, areas in which its research output and faculty expertise are nationally recognised. The university has one of the most active moot court cultures among NLUs, with teams regularly achieving distinction in national and international mooting competitions including Phillip C. Jessup, ICC Mediation and Vis Moot. The student publication ecosystem — with flagship journals in corporate law, IP law and general law — gives students early research and editorial experience. The campus is compact but well-designed, with a law library housing an impressive collection of legal texts, judgments and international law resources, a moot court hall, computing resources, hostels and sports facilities. Placements are excellent with leading firms such as AZB & Partners, Trilegal, Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas and top global firms recruiting from campus.
