About The University

The Karnataka State Law University was established in 2009 with the avowed object of providing quality legal education in the State of Karnataka. It is only one of its kind and unparalleled in India. It is making all efforts for the growth of legal education in Karnataka by including appropriate components to professionally orient the students. The University has catered to the needs and requirements of legal education bringing uniformity in methods of imparting education and conducting examinations across the State providing appropriate optional courses for horizontal mobility. It is the single largest affiliating Law University in the country affiliating 108 law colleges spread over the entire State of Karnataka and operating its own Law School at the main campus in Hubballi.

Our vision is “To transform Karnataka State into a legally conscious society, by providing quality legal education that is professionally competent and socially relevant so as to realize the constitutional primordial goal of social, economic and political justice and secure human rights to every common man. Strive to promote the culture of law and justice in the institutions of the state, non-state organizations, and every individual by providing informal legal education, training, and legal service. Above all, inculcate in everyone a spirit of high moral and human values.” In this endeavor, the University is making all efforts through academic and extension activities to realize the vision. The activities of the University are reinforced by its mission to inter alia strive for excellence in professional legal education and research and establish responsible institutions and produce altruistic individuals.

With a view to providing a suitable environment wherein the law students can hone and chisel their professional skills, the KSLU has initiated an International Law Moot Court Competition. This year, the University is hosting the Eighth International Law Moot Court Competition on the 20th and 21st of August 2022. The emphasis on international law is in keeping with the process of globalization wherein the world is perceived as a global village. In this regard, providing an appropriate platform for young law students across the country to come in contact, interact and understand each other is another incidental objective involved.
