Shiksha Top Questions

Hi there,
Well, Galgotias University is based in NCR and offers other courses apart from law as well.
However, placements for other courses such B.Tech, etc. are decent even though. You can't expect the law firms recruiting here. However, you may expect some of corporate firms and LPOs recruiting here though owing to the reputation based as a traditional university.
Also, it has an advantage of being based in NCR wherein you get ample opportunities for better exposure in terms of internships, etc.
However, till now, no law firms of tier1 or tier 2 has recruited here. Even tier 3 hasn't preferred it.
Though in coming times you may expect tier 3 firms and some corporate houses ending up as a recruit here which depends on quality of students and overall reputation of institute. But, in NCR region, I would advise to prefer other institutes which seem to be better in terms of placements and are older enough to provide an insight into the placements.

This question required a lot of research and what I inferred from is that there are no placement opportunities available for the students taking admissions in distance law colleges. However there are a variety of career opportunities available even after the distance law programme. For example- Cracking judiciary level exams, government jobs available for law officers, legal advisors in banks or MNCs, litigation or even going purely into the corporate sector.
I would like to place my point of view in this answer. To be honest I feel and I have even seen at many places that regular students are given preference over distant college students. Also, one should option for classroom studies for law because Law is a professional degree and hence it should be studied also professionally. We get to learn a lot in classroom education through open discussions, debates, presentations, etc. So, I honestly feel to get better placement or better career opportunities in future, a regular college is necessary.
But, all this is just my point of view so you don't need to be influenced much, it is just for your help as I am telling you as to what I have heard or seen.
Choosing one of them is totally your call.
Hope the answer was helpful.
Thank you.

Hi there,
Well, the Guru Gobind Singh Tricentenary University, Gurgaon has offered law courses as recently as in 2014 and offers both 3 years and 5 years law courses.
The university claims to have standards as par with NLUs but still there is always a difference and which makes the placements opportunities also different.
The institute has both 3 year and 5 year courses and it is much like a traditional university. Also, it is in the NCR region where already a no. of well reputed and old law institutes are already available. Thus, you can't expect much here.
You can get a degree in law but you can't expect campus placements as of now.
Also, in terms of university, even it does not have much in its name.
Thus, the placements seem to be poor as still none of batches have graduated.
Also, you shouldn't expect much from a traditional university and if you do then it may be in terms of litigation or judiciary, etc.

Hi there,
Well, the Heritage Law School is very newly established institute and has still time to build goodwill of any sort. The institute claims to have a placements cell but still as the first batch hasn't graduated yet, you can't speculate anything. Also, the prospects in terms of in house campus placements would need a time span of atleast 10-12 years.
The college may be good in terms of infrastructure, etc. but the placements are always based on quality of graduates produced. So, it is unlikely to predict as of now as already there are a no. of private institutes in law and not every college can get the firms recruiting.
However, being a law graduate, you can have your own career plans and can work accordingly in that direction.
Also, as of now the opportunities here could be said to be evolving which may take up a time upto 12 years.
Thus, choose wisely.

Hi there,
Well, pursuing an LLB course through any distance education course would not yield anything more than a degree on paper which would have no practical aid to build up your career.
Same would go with this course at Kuvempu University as the Bar council Of India doesn't recognise LLB through distance learning and ultimately, you become ineligible for appearing in bar exams and you don't get a licence to practice law at any court. So, the placement opportunities after this course would not be any as such .You may get a job having a meagre pay as you do not qualify to be a full-fledged lawyer in India. So, you must not expect placements as such.
Also, this degree may not be even useful in pursuing any other career such as judiciary also as there also you are not eligible.
So, I would advise if you want to make career in legal field then kindly prefer a full-fledged regular law course at any UGC recognised university both for career as well as placements purposes.

MA in Education - The Degree for Teaching Profession specialization in elementary education.
As the education sector is attracting adequate attention in the age of structural adjustment and economic reform, M.Ed is increasingly becoming a preferred career course for many Indians. This has also helped in the growth of the M.Ed career colleges in India. The M.Ed courses in India are generally pursued after the successful completion of the Bachelor of Education courses. It is a Post-Graduate degree course offered at most of the DIET centers across India.
In India, M.Ed is mainly offered by institutions that are recognized by National Council of Teacher Education, New Delhi.

Students who have passed 10+2 (any stream) from a recognized board are eligible to pursue NTT course. I recommend this teacher training course to readers who are interested in teaching at nurseries, Montessori and day care centers. In short, this course suits those who want to teach pre-primary level students.
Nursery teachers deal with kids who have just stepped into the world of formal education. They play a key role in molding the character, morals and habits of children. To thrive in this profession, one must have patience. Interacting with kids is not easy! It is necessary to have good communication skills to succeed in this profession!
Many may think that life is easy for nursery and pre-primary teachers. But the above paragraph shows how this profession is not devoid of challenges and difficulties. Herse a list of qualities and skills required to thrive in this profession:
Patience.
Energy and enthusiasm.
Passion and liking towards teaching.
Good communication skills.
Eye for detail.
Friendly attitude.

A tenured position in academia is vastly superior to a high school teaching job, although the pay might be worse. The hours, the schedule, the intellectual challenge, the students, etc. will all be better. However, you cannot choose to be a professor. You can go to graduate school, get a Ph.D, work constantly for 5-10 years in the process, publish a great deal, teach a lot (at the adjunct level, starting with your Master's degree), and still never get the tenure-track job. Only 29 percent of university and college teachers are on tenured or tenure track now, down from 40 percent ten years earlier. Jobs will typically have 200 applicants. Winners are usually those from the school with the best pedigree (grads of top 12 Gourmet Report schools generate 75% of profs at top fifty graduate schools in Phil), or the candidate with the best-known advisor, and then gender vastly skews the equation. But, don't forget that the interview trumps everything and, so the high school popularity contest will decide the winners among those chosen for interviews.
