Info

The National Law School of India University (NLSIU) is an institution for undergraduate and graduate legal education in India. It was the first ever National Law University to be established in India. NLSIU was the first institute in India to offer a pioneering 5 year intensive course in social sciences and law. The school consistently ranks as the most prestigious law school in India.
Located in Bangalore, NLSIU was established by a statute passed by the Legislative Assembly of the State of Karnataka. The school was officially founded on August 29, 1987. The statute provides that the Chief Justice of India serves as the school's Visitor. The Vice-Chancellor, currently R.Venkata.Rao, serves as the school's chief administrator.
The school has an intake of around 80 students in its undergraduate law programme, 40 in Masters of Law and 40 in its, recently introduced, Masters of Public Policy.
