Law degrees have always been among the most sought-after and widely respected courses to study at university. For many, a law degree is the first step along the path to a career in the legal sector, often followed by the further study and training needed to become a practicing solicitor or barrister. However, this is certainly not the only reason to study law at university. Law degrees are notoriously challenging, and for many students, the attraction lies in the unique combination of human interest and intellectual stimulation provided. I am also a Law student and i think Quantum is good for students according to their curriculum and their way of teaching.

Law is one of the popular career choices in our country for a long time. Those whose families have been into the profession for generations in India usually opt to study law too. However, to become a lawyer it is not mandatory to have a family background in law neither is it necessary that you belong to an affluent family. Anyone can choose to study law as long as one has the passion for it. I am also a student of law in Quantum university, Roorkee. Here Quantum university offers two types of integrated law course BALLB and BBALLB. These degree holders can explore the industries by getting job roles like Law Officer, Advocate, Litigator, Corporate Lawyer, etc. After completing law degree, an All India Bar Exam has to be pass to become fully qualified to take on the law career.
