Programmes Offered


LLB (Hons) - university of london

LLB (Hons) from University of London is a Qualifying Law Degree which means our graduates are directly eligible to undertake the vocational stage to become a Barrister with the Bar of England & Wales. After the University of London LLB (Hons), our students complete a 9 month Bar Professional Training Course (BPTC) at one of the top ranking universities in the UK or take 9 month Bar Transfer Course at Blackstone School of Law (Lahore campus or online). After successful completion of their exams, they become entitled to the title of “Barrister”. Please note: The local Pakistani 5-year LLB is NOT a Qualifying Law Degree. The graduates of local Pakistani LLB are not eligible to undertake Bar Professional Training Course (BPTC) in the UK to become a Barrister. Whereas, the University of London LLB (Hons) makes the candidates directly eligible to undertake BPTC to become a Barrister.

Education through Google Classroom

We are the only institution in Pakistan that provides higher education through Google classroom. We have flipped the classroom, put the student at the center of their learning to enhance their critical thinking skills. The role of the faculty is to inspire students through multi layered questions. We have broken the spell of passive learning by mandating students to conduct research everyday. Our classrooms also leverage the traditional wisdom of education by incorporating small Socratic groups. Imagine yourself studying in ancient Athens with a dynamic teacher having access to the world`s largest library.
