SRM School of Law is a school in Chennai, India, where students learn to become lawyers.

The school recently signed agreements with six large organisations in the country to help its students learn better.

These organisations work in many important areas, like courts and justice, helping the public, doing research, and supporting new business ideas.

The agreements are called Memoranda of Understanding, or MoUs.

Because of these partnerships, students will get to learn by doing real things instead of only reading books.

They will also meet more people who work in law and justice jobs, which can help them later.

Professor YSR Murthy of the school said learning about law should not happen only inside a classroom.

The school wants students to gain practical skills for a changing legal world.

It also hopes to become a leading centre for innovative legal education in India.

In short, the school is teaming up with partners to give students more real-world learning experiences.
