HPNLU Review

Faculty:

A class generally holds about 50-60 students. The faculty is interactive and is keen to help the students on related subject matters. The faculty members I like include Dr Aayush Raj and Dr Honey Kumar. Dr Raj twists your perspective of contemporary world and helps you appreciate your culture without your view being muddled by the western concepts. Dr Kumar is ever so patient in explaining his concepts and loves to help out a student whenever the opportunity is presented. There is no one in particular that I am displeased with and clashes between the faculty and students are extremely rare. For each semester, two exams are conducted; Mid semester exams and Final semester exams. No exam is conducted at an easy level. The exams analyse the critical analysis skills of students and gauge their capabilities by putting them in different theoretical situations. Only a few students fail to clear the exam. The marking scheme seems to be strict. The course curriculum helps the students to view and analyse different subjects in the light of the legal context.

HPNLU'S KNOW HOW

Likes

The one thing i Liked is that the faculty here is good.

The Faculty is good. Some of them are not as good they just come and teach there is no interaction whatsoever. Also the Marking system is also sometimes biased which frustrates the student's, but overall the faculty is good.

HPNLU - All You Need To Know !

The faculties are knowledgeable, experienced, hard-working and well-natured .The non-teaching staff is also friendly and helpful !

The university has a group of well-educated, hard-working and eminent personalities who have contributed to great pieces of publication and policy-making originating from NLUs' and upholding Ph.Ds' , it is a pleasure learning from them (you shall meet the legends when you arrive). The faculties are highly approachable and friendly during the teaching hours and even after that, they appreciate doubts and questions . I've personally seeked mentorship and guidance from various faculties and everyone has been kind enough to go beyond their way to help their student. The examination structure is divided into mid-sems and end -sems of 25 marks and 50 marks respectively, the remaining 25 are kept for internal and presentation grading, constituting 100 marks each semester. Readings and case laws are given on a daily basis along with lectures. The examinations are not based on rote-learning, rather on application and analyzing therefore understanding of concept is a must since the questions are not direct. The ratio of success to failure is negligible unless you have given up on studies and decide to roam off in the mountains. The course curriculum is in line with the UGC guidelines and is updated every semester for every incoming batch. Though, it would be appreciated if extra-curricular activities are inculcated during lectures and are not restricted till the times of assignment allocation.

HPNLU- WHAT & HOW

The faculty is well knowledgeable, smart and is always upto date.

There are 29 teachers teaching different subjects to different batches. The strength of new batches since 2022-27 is increasing progressively. The faculty to student relationship is good. Students can approach teachers in case of doubts or any issue in the college hours or after the classes ends. Personally, Dr. Chanchal, Santosh sir, Alok sir, Mrityunjay Sir, Navdtiya ma'am teach exceptionally well. They're well aware of the course curriculum and bring practical knowledge to their teaching. Dr.Rohit is best when it comes to make a class really interactive. Mid semesters and End Semesters are held each year. Mid semesters exams are for 25 marks and End Sems for 50. Presentation and Assignment for 25. The exam papers focus on analytical and critical thinking making you think our of the box and bring practical answers. Those found cheating or doing any foul play maybe debard from writing the examinations. It is easy to pass these exams. Syllabus is updated each year.

Living near mountains is a real bliss. Faculty is very cooperative.

Faculty is cooperative and have knowledge. Some professors are not that good but they are helpful and understand the problems of the students. Faculty student ratio is also okayish and sometimes the teachers are given the subject which they are not able to teach.

The reality of HPNLU

The faculty is permanent , Experienced and Supportive, also they are mostly from other NLUs and eminent law colleges such as DU , Amity , etc.

The faculty members are well experienced and qualified. Most of them are Phd.s and have also cleared their NET. Many of them are young, which makes them interested in teaching and ambitious , they also emotionally connect with the students. They have past teaching experience from eminent educational intitutes such as NLUs (RGNUL, NLUO, RML, etc.) , DU, HPU and Amity. They have also framed CLAT question papers. They are accesable , helpfull and supportive. I interact with them on a daily basis, some of the faculty members have also shared their personal contact numbers with us, they are appproachable and genuine. Some faculty members who hold the charge of different committies have really helped them to proper and flourish. They have helped me throughout my journey of 1 year.

My journey of becoming a lawyer.

The faculty of the college are alumni of most recognised Law schools in the country. I remember, they used to be very strict in the classroom and always taught us also to be strict because they said this is how lawyers are supposed to be. They not only taught us about the syllabus but also life ethics.
