The School
Upon approval from the Bar Council of India, Xavier Law School (XLS), a constituent unit of St. Xavier’s University, Kolkata, introduced undergraduate law programmes on 3rd August, 2019. Presently XLS offers two five-year integrated programmes – B.A. LL.B.(Hons.) and B.Com. LL.B.(Hons.).
As a newly established school, the vision of XLS is to bring about excellence in the realm of professional education in law besides academic exposure in juridical studies as another applied domain of the social sciences discipline.
Rooted in and inspired by the Ignatian charism of forming ‘men and women for others’, XLS strives to train its students in the twin path of ‘Satya’ and ‘Dharma’. While it is ‘Dharma’ to speak the truth, speaking the truth leads to the attainment of the ultimate ‘Dharma’ which is peace and prosperity of the individual and society.
The mission of XLS is manifold. It intends to set international standards for legal education that are contemporary and relevant in the 21st century. It aims to promote academic exchange and academia-professional interface with the latest pedagogy and techniques. It attempts to bridge the spatial divide and take the benefits of education to the poor and marginalized for the purpose of their empowerment.
XLS, since its establishment has progressed with remarkable pace to bring its dreams to fruition. Since it has come into existence, it has witnessed a continuous improvement in terms of infrastructural amenities and more importantly in terms of achievements of its students. XLS has a dedicated library for its students along with a fully functional legal aid clinic that provides the necessary exposure to its students in terms of application of law.
An internship policy is in place that assists students in procuring internships with well-established legal professionals and law firms. The Xavier Society of Law and Justice and the Moot Court Society have been established to provide its students adequate exposure in terms of various academic activities organized by them. It aims to make its students updated with the expanding horizon of legal education.
