LAW + JUSTICE EDUCATION + JUDICIAL DISCIPLINE + PROFESSIONALISM+ SKILLS+ HUMAN VALUES+ PRACTISE READY =PRINCIPAL VISION

AU SOLJ stands at the cutting edge of legal education by imparting fascinating interdisciplinary studies for law students. Vibrant campus life coupled with cross-pollination of knowledge is at the core of SOLJ’s teaching and learning process. Modern pedagogy with emphasis on library orientation, moot court training, and trial advocacy skill development; the Law School at Adamas is always buzzing with activities. SOLJ stands as the flag bearer of a modern-day new age teaching-learning ecosystem, with law students even having the option to undertake courses on robotics, AI, etc., amidst a plethora of interesting electives offered by the Law School from time to time. Also, with technology at the forefront and intertwining with all walks of life in this era, at SOLJ, we focus on the aspects of the intersection of technology and law in classroom teaching across five years of the Law School.   Talks, Workshops, and Events (Seminar, Webinars, Conferences, National Moot Court Competition, Nukkad Natak, Annual Fest-Adinova, etc.) with eminent experts from India and abroad are being conducted on a regular basis which includes professionals from top-tier Law Firms, Universities, and corporates of national and international repute. In fact, the Law School is currently running a course with Law Shikho to impart practical training to the students beyond classroom teaching. It also presents multiple avenues where students may avail themselves of the opportunities offered by the University through multiple foreign collaborations and MOUs. At AU SOLJ, a dedicated Moot Mentor is designated for participating teams to hand-hold and improve their skill set for better outcomes in national and international competitions. Understanding the pulse of the legal profession and the importance of students’ training on Procedural Laws, which are better learned hands-on, Adamas University engages practicing advocates & retired judges for teaching such domains as well as coaching the students during moots. Professors make a difference in a student’s Law School journey. Here at SOLJ, the dynamic pool of faculty members is nationally and globally exposed to top institutions, including universities in the top league of the world, such as QS Rankings and NLUs.
