LLB, derived from the Latin term Legum Baccalaureus, which means Bachelor of Laws, is an academic and professional degree in law. It is the foundational course for anyone who wishes to pursue a career in the legal field. The LLB equips students with knowledge of the legal system, principles of justice, and the ability to analyze and apply laws. The duration of the LLB program depends on the route a student takes. In many countries, including India, there are two pathways to earning an LLB degree. One is the 3-year LLB, which is pursued after completing a bachelor’s degree in any field. The other is the 5-year integrated LLB, which students can begin directly after completing their 12th (high school). Both routes ultimately prepare students for a professional career in law, but the integrated program combines law with other disciplines like Arts, Business, or Science. The LLB curriculum covers a wide range of legal subjects, including Constitutional Law, Criminal Law, Civil Law, Contract Law, Property Law, Family Law, Administrative Law, and International Law. Students also learn about legal procedures, professional ethics, and jurisprudence — the philosophy behind laws. Apart from theoretical knowledge, LLB programs emphasize practical training through moot courts, legal research, internships with law firms, and participation in legal aid clinics. This practical exposure helps students understand how to apply their knowledge in real-world situations and develop advocacy and communication skills.
