Harvard Law School Center On Legal Profession & Law School Admission Council To Host Conference On Future Of Legal Education In India

The Harvard Law School Center on the Legal Profession and the Law School Admission Council (LSAC) will be hosting a conference on ‘The Future of Legal Education in India’  on 16-17 November 2018 in New Delhi.

As background for this event, the Harvard Law School Center on the Legal Profession has been studying the Indian legal profession for over 10 years as part of its project on Globalization, Lawyers, and Emerging Economies (GLEE). In 2017, the studies were published by Cambridge University Press in a book titled ‘The Indian Legal Profession in the Age of Globalization: The Rise of the Corporate Legal Sector and its Impact on Lawyers and Society’.

The LSAC is an organization that provides global legal education services and is most widely known for the Law School Admission Test (LSAT). The two organizations are now collaborating to convene this conference.

The conference will bring together key leaders from the legal profession, academia, government, and the private sector to discuss the critical challenges—and the important opportunities—facing Indian legal education. Supreme Court judge, Justice Rohinton Nariman will be delivering the keynote address on the evening of 16 November.
