  • IEM has a strong E-Cell that consistently performs well in all India business summit competitions.
  • From 2007 till now around 15-16 start-up was created under the guidance of the E-Cell.

Which is better, DU LLB or Symbiosis Hyderabad?

PS
Pragya Sinha Posted On : June 6th, 2022
BA. LLB from Symbiosis Law School, Noida (2020)

DU LLB is better than Symbiosis Hyderabad. It is one of the most sought-after courses at DU. The law faculty of the university is excellent. The professors will treat you like adults. The rules aren’t too strict. The course works leaves a lot of room to pursue other avenues such as part-time work, judicial services, internships, and preparing for competitive examinations. 

The departmental library stays open from 9 am to 8 pm. Those who want to study can use the resources as much as they want.

DU law courses are probably the cheapest in the country. DU LLB course fee is only around INR 16,284. 

The university has a huge alumni base in the Law sector. Almost every third legal guy you meet will have some kind of connectivity to DU law faculty. 

The placement cell of the DU Law faculty is active. Students get referrals for internships. Though the number of campus placements is few. Students get placements through the contacts they make over their course duration. Good law firms are also known to hire students from campus. But to get recruitment, students need to take the required initiatives. DU LLB placements aren’t akin to NLSs or engineering colleges.
