SRM School of Law signs six MoUs for experiential learning
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.
SRM School of Law signed six Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) with leading national organisations.
The partner organisations work at the intersection of legal education, justice delivery, public service, research, entrepreneurship, and community engagement.
The MoUs aim to enhance experiential learning, expand professional networks, and encourage interdisciplinary scholarship.
Prof YSR Murthy, Pro Vice-Chancellor of SRM School of Law, said legal education must extend far beyond the classroom.
The school said the partnerships reinforce a socially responsive, globally relevant, and practice-oriented legal education ecosystem.
