The West Bengal National University of Juridical Sciences, abbreviated to WBNUJS or NUJS is a specialised law university offering courses at the undergraduate and postgraduate levels. It is situated in Salt Lake City of Kolkata, West Bengal, India. NUJS is one of the seven elite national law schools in India built on the five-year law degree model proposed and implemented by the Bar Council of India.

The University offers a five year integrated B.A./BSc. LLB (Hons.) degree programme at the undergraduate level and a Master of Laws (LLM) programme at the postgraduate level. Admission to the former programme is through the Common Law Admission Test, a highly competitive, nationwide common entrance examination, held jointly by the seven national law schools. NUJS also offers MPhil and PhD degrees.

History

NUJS was established in 1999 by the Bar Council of India, in conjunction with the Government of West Bengal. Somnath Chatterjee, the Speaker of India's Lower House of Parliament, has described NUJS as the "brainchild" of Jyoti Basu, the former Chief Minister of West Bengal who, like Chatterjee, is a Middle Temple barrister [ http://speakerloksabha.nic.in/speech/SpeechDetails.asp?SpeechId=225 Somnath Chatterjee's Address at the Second Annual Convocation of the West Bengal National University of Juridical Sciences, Kolkata, 23 June 2007] , accessed 21 June 2008] . During the first two years of its existence, NUJS did not have an operationalised permanent campus. Classes were held at Aranya Bhavan, a building owned by the West Bengal Government, and students resided in government flats. On 28 October, 2002, the University's present-day permanent campus was inaugurated by the then Chief Justice of India, B N Kirpal. [http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/cms.dll/html/uncomp/articleshow?artid=26500709Laws should be dynamic: BN Kirpal, Times of India, 28 Oct 2002] , accessed 21 June 2008] . In 2006, NUJS was allotted a five-acre plot in New Town, Rajarhat, an upscale township being developed by the West Bengal government.

Academic Reputation

NUJS has a strong academic reputation. LexisNexis Halsbury's Law Monthly rates NUJS as a "Tier One" law school, jointly with the NALSAR University of Law, Hyderabad, and the National Law School of India University (NLSIU), Bangalore, and states that NUJS's "placement process is at par with the other two colleges in the top tier." [http://www.lawentrance.com/top_law_schools_in_india_and_abroad.pdfTop Law Schools in India and Abroad, Halsbury's Law Monthly, December 2007] , accessed 21 June 2008] . In 2008, in a ranking conducted jointly by the Wall Street Journal and Mint (a business newspaper of the Hindustan Times group), NUJS was rated as the third best law school in India (behind NLSIU and NALSAR), with the best "Pedagogic systems and process" amongst all law schools in the country. [ http://www.livemint.com/2008/06/12012600/2008/06/12001201/C8398807-CAB9-491F-83EF-3D5B62CE5CFEArtVPF.pdf HT-WSJ Rankings for the TOP 15 LAW COLLEGES IN INDIA 2008] , accessed 23 June 2008] . Overall, the survey awarded NUJS a score of 607 out of 800, while NLSIU and NALSAR achieved scores of 621 and 609 respectively. However, the news magazine India Today ranked NUJS sixth in 2007 and 2008, below law schools that Halsbury's Law Monthly classifies as Tier Two and Tier Three institutions. [ India's Best Colleges, India Today, 2 June 2008 ] . In 2006, India Today did not even feature NUJS (along with a few other national law schools) in their rankings. India Today's 2006 rankings was criticised as having "gaping flaws" and having caused a "wave of confusion" by lawentrance.com, a website popular amongst law school aspirants [http://www.lawentrance.com/lstresponsetorankings2006.htmLST’s Official Response to the India Today Rankings 2006, June 2, 2006] , accessed 21 June 2008] .

The popular press has described NUJS as "one of the top three NLUs" [ http://www.hindu.com/2007/03/12/stories/2007031203030300.htmNLUs, a preferred recruitment destination] , accessed 21 June 2008] ("The Hindu"),"one of the most prestigious institutions for legal education in the country" [http://www.telegraphindia.com/1070118/asp/careergraph/story_7274373.aspAn eye on law January 18, 2007] , accessed 21 June 2008] ("The Telegraph"),and a University whose students' moot court achievements "put Kolkata on the world map in less than three years" [ http://www1.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/articleshow/43507000.cmBy law: NUJS is the world champion. 16 May 2003,] , accessed 21 June 2008] ("The Times of India").

Ethos

NUJS was established in consonance with the Prof Menon's concerns that a law school must act as a tool of "social engineering". Echoing such a belief, NUJS's purported goals "inter alia" are:

* To advance and disseminate learning and knowledge of law and legal processes and their role in national development
* To develop in the student and research scholar a sense of responsibility to serve society by developing skills in regard to advocacy, legal service, legislation, law reforms and the like.
* To promote inter-disciplinary study of law in relation to management, technology, inter national cooperation and development.

According to Professor Mahendra P Singh, the University's incumbent Vice Chancellor, it is NUJS's "endeavour to teach students the value of social justice so that they can help the weaker sections of society." [ http://www.telegraphindia.com/1070118/asp/careergraph/story_7274373.asp An eye on law January 18, 2007] , accessed 21 June 2008] . It is undeniable that most academicians in NUJS espouse socialist and/or left-wing beliefs, although students are given full freedom and sometimes even encouraged to adopt contrary positions. In the past, the University has had a Marxist scholar, Professor B S Chimni, as its Vice Chancellor. However, the overwhelming majority of students have so far opted for lucrative jobs in the corporate sector and shunned opportunities to work as "social engineers". Elective subjects linked to business and commerce (e.g. Corporate Finance and Competition Law) typically have large numbers of students opting for them, while electives linked to social concerns and human rights (e.g. Gender and Law, Culture and Pluralism) have few takers, sometimes none. In an article written for the "The Hindu", Dr Ajay Gudavarthy, a former teacher at NUJS and NLSIU, criticised both these institutions as being "tailored for the corporates" and argued that they could end up as "professional institutions without social relevance." [ http://www.thehindu.com/2004/11/02/stories/2004110203131000.htm Ajay Gudavarthy, Tailored for the corporates? November 2, 2004] , accessed 21 June 2008]

Campuses

Salt Lake Campus

NUJS's main campus is located on a prime five-acre plot in Salt Lake City, overseeing the Eastern Metropolitan Bypass. The National Insitute of Fashion Technology and the College of Leather Technology border the Campus. The Hyatt Regency and the ITC Sheraton Sonar Bangla, two of Kolkata's largest luxury hotels are situated close to the Campus. The Salt Lake Campus was designed by the architectural firm Ghosh,Bose and Associates, which also designed the Hyatt Regency. Like the Hyatt Regency, NUJS' central building is an example of the Modernist school of architecture, characterised by minimalist design and open spaces. The front facade has a large, standalone, Neo-Doric style column that also acts as a support (this has been nicknamed by students as the "Pillar of Justice").

Other prominent landmarks within walking distance from the campus include the Yuva Bharati Krirangan (one of the world's largest football stadiums), the Bengal Tennis Academy, the multiplex 89 Cinemas, the Nicco Super Bowl bowling alley, the Stadel resort hotel, Apollo Gleneagles Hospital, AMRI Hospital, the Abcos Food Plaza and the supermarkets Charnock City and Food Bazaar. The Campus is also a fifteen minutes' drive away from Kolkata's famous Park Street, a location that has been at the heart of the city's nightlife since the days of the British Raj and whose restaurants have been credited with having launched some of India's earliest jazz and rock musicians. Tangra, South Asia's only Chinatown, is also situated a few minutes' drive away from the Campus, and its eateries are a popular haunt amongst students.

The Salt Lake Campus consists of an academic block and three residential blocks. The latter comprises two separate, seven-storied halls of residence for girls and boys and a double-storied faculty accommodation house-cum-guest house. The University's academic block, christened after B.R. Ambedkar, is a four-storied octagonal structure that opens inwardly to a lawn. The building houses Class rooms, a library and reading room, two modern conference halls, various offices and an auditorium. The NUJS Library houses over 20,000 titles and, owing largely to a donation from the estate of the late Justice Durga Das Basu, contains many rare books of historical importance. The reading room is equipped computers linked to major Indian and international onlne legal databases. In addition to the main library, each School of the University has its own specialised library.

NUJS also holds institutional memberships with leading libraries in the cities such as the British Council Library and the American Information Resource Center. Besides this, law students from other universities are encouraged to use the library for research and study.

Admission to the hostels is conducted simultaneously with admission to the University. Although most students reside in the hostels for the entire duration of their course, some local residents choose live off campus in their homes. The hostels provide reasonable amenities to the students and has a mess serving vegetarian and non-vegetarian meals. Washrooms are modern and hostel rooms are equipped with round-the-clock internet access. The hostels have their own rules of discipline, which are primarily administered by the Wardens in association with students. Self-governance is encouraged for which powers are delegated to select student representatives. The hostel mess is managed by a Mess Committee managed by the residents themselves. There is a doctor available for consultation, who visits the hostel regularly. This apart, the University organizes medical help whenever needed through tie-ups with hospitals located in the Salt Lake area. The Corporation Bank, a public sector undertaking, has opened a branch inside the campus and offers banking facilities, including an ATM facility.

The Salt Lake Campus has limited sports facilities and the University authorities have attempted to compensate for this by forging a tie-up with the Sports Authority of India, whose sports complex is located a few metres away from the University.

Rajarhat Campus

NUJS's Rajarhat Campus is yet to be operationalised by the University authorities. No significant construction activity has been undertaken and the land presently lies vacant. Amongst the proposals that have been put forward to the auhorities for the development of the Rajarhat Campus has been the construction of a dedicated sports complex.

Krishna Iyer, Justice M.N. Venkatachaliah , Upendra Baxi, Ram Jethmalani, Indira Jaising, Vandana Shiva, Bibek Debroy and Jayati Ghosh.

NUJS's locational accessibility has made it possible for professors from Kolkata's other reputed institutions to visit the campus and take classes. Professors from institutions such as the Indian Institute of Management, Calcutta, the Indian Statistical Institute, the Indian Institute of Foreign Trade, Presidency College, Kolkata, St. Xavier's College, Calcutta and Jadavpur University often visit NUJS.

Courses on offer

The five year integrated BA/BSc LLB(Hons) Degree programme is the undergraduate course offered. While the post-graduate courses offered is the LL.M. degree. The University also offers doctoral degrees.

LL.M programme

The LL.M degree course is a two-year post graduate course. This programme is interested in attracting students who either wish to join the academia or seek to acquire advanced research skills before joining the legal profession. The students therefore come from a wide variety of back grounds with divergent legal interests and career plans. The admission shall be based exclusively on the performance in the Common Law Admission Test (CLAT). However, to qualify for admission, the candidate should have secured LL.B. degree or its equivalent from a recognized University, having obtained not less than 50% marks in the aggregate.

The LL.M. programme comprises a range of compulsory and optional courses and a disserta tion to be completed within a time frame of four semesters. In the first semester, the students are expected to complete three compulsory courses. In each of the second and third semesters, they have to complete three optional courses respectively. These courses are identified by the Post Graduate Council (PGC) of the University in consultation with its Faculty Council. Students are allowed to make their suggestions regarding choices/preferences of any subject or subjects to the PGC which is given due consideration. A dissertation is to be written in the fourth semester on an approved topic. The students are expected to make presentations on their dissertation one month in advance to their submission and also take up independent teaching assignments on certain subjects.

M.PHIL programme

The M. Phil Degree Programme is specifically designed for aspiring legal academics i.e., students who wish to pursue sustained independent study and research and are planning careers in law teaching.

The candidates to these degrees are expected to produce a thesis that will constitute a substantial and valuable contribution to legal scholarship. The students would be expected to incorporate the insights of other disciplines into their work, drawing on the expertise and assistance not only available at NUJS but also from other leading universities of the world. The doctoral programme call for intense individual efforts requiring sustained discipline and self-direction. Since the doctoral programme are designed to train law teachers, having the opportunity to practice one’s teaching skills is critical. The candidate would therefore be given teaching assignments in addition to making presentations before the faculty community.

Legal Aid Society

* Human Rights and Public Education - for empowering people through legal education and instilling in them consciousness about their rights and duties. This is done through field visits in semi-urban and rural areas as well as publicized seminars and workshops within the university itself.

* Youth for Social Justice - A social awareness program that targets young people with the objective of ingraining in impressionable minds a sense of social justice.

* Law Enforcement Assistance - This subcommittee works with law enforcement authorities such as the police, Government, pollution control board, for providing an interface to people in order to promote legal awareness and law-enforcement.
