Our university's Law Department is the best of them all.

Faculty: If I judge them purely on teaching, then definitely 10 out of 10. They are all PhD holders and have a strong sense of how to make students study, and this is the real differentiation. They make classrooms fun and solve each case study with great enthusiasm and energy. So, a batch of 50 students always has at least 45 students present.

Affordable private law college.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. They teach so well that difficult topics seem to be easy. The course curriculum is relevant. There are different activities done to interact with the students. I am in my first year and haven't given a single exam yet. What I have come to know from my seniors is that there are four types of exams being conducted, and the difficulty level is moderate to hard.

The ICFAI University Dehradun is marvelous.

Faculty: On both fronts, which are qualification and experience our faculty members score 100 on 100. Semester exams are not so tough as our faculty members are not so strict when it comes to giving marks. Our course is also moderate with 5-6 subjects in each semester. The passing percentage of students is also higher than that of other private universities.

Good infrastructure, hostel life, and a good choice for your professional journey.

Faculty: Most professors are knowledgeable and friendly. Many have valuable work or legal practice experience which enhances the learning process. The BBA LL.B. curriculum is decent and touches on all managerial and legal topics. Some students might feel that certain classes could be more practical or case-based especially in the advanced years. Exams are moderately difficult studying throughout the semester is usually enough to pass them and the pass rate is satisfactory.

A good BBA experience with great learning and career opportunities.

Faculty: The faculty is one of the better aspects of the university. Teachers are qualified, knowledgeable, and supportive. Students can approach them when they need academic guidance. The curriculum covers important areas of business management but more practical exposure, industry projects, and corporate interaction would make it more useful. Semester examinations are moderate and can be cleared with consistent preparation.

Good for law and judicial academic record.

Faculty: Faculty are quite responsive in and out of the classrooms. There is a constant push for more openness in communication between students and teachers in a friendly environment. There is a small club of faculty members who have quite good knowledge in their respective fields and problem-solving.

The college infrastructure is good, and facilities provided by the college are affordable.

Faculty: I don't know about the curriculum because I am new to the course. The course curriculum is relevant. It encourages students to participate in activities.

I really loved our seniors. Our college has good faculty and placements too.

Faculty: Everyone in the management is helpful and the subjects are relevant. The semester exams are not that hard but the lack of a practical project is a demerit. The pass percentage is always above 95 percent and even though it's not that hard. Faculty always helps weak students by giving them extra time.
