Law courses typically involve either a 3-year LLB (Bachelor of Laws) or a 5-year integrated BA LLB (Bachelor of Arts in Law) program. The LLB focuses on legal studies, while the BA LLB combines law with other subjects like humanities or social sciences. Both pathways prepare students for careers in law, but the BA LLB offers a broader foundation.

Types of Law Courses:

3-year LLB: This is a traditional undergraduate degree in law, open to graduates in any field.

5-year BA LLB: This is an integrated program combining a bachelor's degree in arts or another discipline with a law degree, typically taken immediately after high school.

Other Integrated Law Courses: Examples include BBA LLB, BCom LLB, and BSc LLB.

Career Paths:

Litigation: Working as a lawyer in court.

Corporate Law: Advising businesses on legal matters.

Legal Consulting: Providing expert legal advice.

Public Service: Working for government agencies or in the public sector.

Legal Research: Analyzing and interpreting legal principles.

Eligibility:

For LLB: A bachelor's degree in any discipline is typically required.

For BA LLB: Completion of 10+2 (higher secondary education) is required.
