LLM (Constitutional & Administrative Law) - Overview

The LLM (Constitutional and Administrative Law) programme at CHRIST (Deemed to be University), Lavasa Campus, is a one-year postgraduate programme designed for law graduates seeking advanced expertise in India's constitutional framework, governance structures, and administrative law. Widely regarded as the grundnorm, the Constitution plays a pivotal role in shaping public policy and law-making, and the values it enshrines — fundamental rights, independent judiciary, and rule of law — have profoundly shaped the quality of life of citizens. Offered as part of one of India's top law schools, the programme incorporates specialised courses, seminars, experiential learning opportunities, and special events promoting interaction with attorneys, diplomats, policymakers, and civil society leaders. Students are encouraged to produce publishable research through a supervised dissertation and an independent field research project.
