National Law University, Orissa to join CLAT


NLUO, which came into being in 2009, was conducting its own admission test till date. For the last three consecutive years, the NLUO admission test was receiving highest compliments from renowned evaluators of law tests from all over the country. The university has already attained national stature as it comprises of students from 28 states. Every year the number of students appearing in its entrance test has been doubling.
However, the Executive Council has taken a stand to become a part of the mainstream law entrance test because the students shall now give higher preference to NLUO due to good reputation carved by it in the last three years.
What sets NLUO apart from other law schools is its integration of knowledge by the adoption of an interdisciplinary approach: a student from a Social Science stream can opt for a Management course and vice- versa. The introduction of courses like Mining Law, Food Law, Water Law, Energy Law, Agricultural Law and Legal Journalism also adds to the uniqueness of the university. In addition, NLUO has also launched a unique conjoint Ph.D-LLM program that will include intensive teachers' training program, Educational Psychology, learning tools and stipends. Unlike other Ph.D courses offered nationwide, this research program by NLUO provides LLM degree as a by product.
Through the above mentioned educational innovations and many more to come, the Vice-Chancellor envisages NLUO to become the best legal destination in the country in the next five years.
