Whether is it worth to study master in law from UK, I heard their are no jobs presently and many students are facing financial issues.

Ans: Hi.....Studying for a master’s in law in the UK can still be worthwhile, given the country’s esteemed legal education system and its globally recognized qualifications. However, it’s important to be aware of the current job market challenges and financial considerations. While the legal sector in the UK remains prestigious and offers excellent academic and professional networks, recent economic conditions and high living costs have led to financial strain for some students. To mitigate these concerns, thoroughly research potential universities for their job placement rates, available scholarships, and support services. Additionally, consider the long-term benefits of a UK legal education, such as its potential to enhance career prospects globally and the value of a prestigious qualification in the legal field. Balancing these factors with your financial readiness and career goals will help determine if pursuing a master’s in law in the UK aligns with your aspirations.

Is doing BBA + Law (Honors) from BITS Law is worth
Ans: Anju, prior to addressing the question, I would like to draw your attention to a recent article in 'The Times of India' which indicates that a majority of law graduates tend to favor employment in corporate settings over practicing in courts. Now, coming to your question, please note, BITS Law School's BBA + LLB (Hons) program is a 5-year program that combines business administration with legal studies. The program focuses on areas such as corporate law, intellectual property, business laws, and dispute resolution. The program offers a strong multidisciplinary approach, preparing students for careers in corporate law, legal consultancy, and management. Its strengths include a business + legal acumen curriculum, industry-driven curriculum, and a reputation for excellence in education and placement opportunities. However, it lacks the legacy and alumni network of top-tier law schools and can be expensive. Career opportunities include corporate and business law, management roles, consulting, entrepreneurship, academia/research, international arbitration, cyber and technology law, corporate governance, and intellectual property rights. The program is worth considering if you aim for a corporate or business law career, are comfortable with the cost and value of the BITS brand, and have excellent industry connections and internships. Build your profile well by the time you complete your BBA+LLB & improve your all other skills required. All the BEST for Your Prosperous Future.
