HPNLU Shimla Ranking 2025

I am currently unaware of the internship opportunities provided by the university. However placements and internships seem to be usually at courts and law firms and for first years, they are usually at organisations run by individuals funded by donations.

There are various internship opportunities available to us like internships in NCDRC, Chambers of advocate, Law firms. Some of the internships are with stipends and some are not with stipend. But since last year the internships have improved.

Various firms and chambers have approached the campus since we've had Tier-1 and Tier-3 placements successfully achieved. However it is still at a developing pace as most placements are acquired by the students off of their own connections and hard-work with no helping hand of the university.

interships in several law firms an lawyers and government institutions is provided by the university. plus perk of being a nlu let you get any internship easily . so internship opportunities are vast and amazing tha helps you to get on field knowledge of your course .

The students are advised to search for internship opportunities on their own. The talented students even become call back interns at Trilegal. Many seniors intern at Trilegal, SAM, Amarchand Mangaldas, Khatin & Khaitan Co, etc. Sometimes the placement and internship cell organize seminars and even forward emails for certain firms to intern at via the cell.

Internships are offered in this university by placement assistance cell. However this placement are from places who just need interns just for the sake of it. Not being dependent on the cell for the placement is best for one's career.

The companies offered are from student run placement cells, where students bring in internships and offer internships every year. Internship during college days is not allowed. Bi-annual internship holiday is provided. The students do not usually receive internship from the college, hence they intern from their own networks. They arrange their own internships. Doing internship at an NGO at least once is mandatory. Usually legal internships are considered from DLSA, SLSA and NALSA. The district court, sessions court, high court and Supreme court are great places for internship. The stipend offered is not very high it can be a minimal 5k to 10000. That too in 8th and 10th semester. Initially not very high stipends are offered.

The internships offered by the university have started only recently but the offers that have come have come from good law firms etc. Most students find internships on their own and the projects vary depending on the nature of their internship (litigation, corporate etc.) Internships are largely unpaid.

I have worked under a few advocates in MP high Court and also in Journals such as Centre for legal research, foreign and public policy and Juristopedia.

The placement cell is good. As I mentioned my university is a growing University and would take some time. Also the senior most batch is just promoted to 5th year. Though my internship and placement committee is dedicated to bringing various firms.
