From the Dean’s Desk
At VMLS, we spend all our energies unraveling what the law school of the future means, and should aspire to achieve. We have built our blueprint for this vision on three key pillars: inclusivity and diversity, bilingual teaching support, future proofing our learners.
Our extensive clinical education with a focus on justice delivery and support for the most deserving among us. All our four centers of excellence, smart classrooms and other state of the art infrastructure, and faculty with international training and exposure, exist and collaborate in service of this vision.
