About Us

The Law Department was established in 1969 as the first Law Department in the State of Haryana to impart legal education and to conduct original and fundamental research in the contemporary areas of law and allied subjects. Since its inception, very renowned, eminent and outstanding scholars have headed the Department.

As a part of practical training and to provide due exposure to students and teachers, Eminent Jurists, Senior Advocates and Eminent Professors from other Universities are invited to deliver extension lectures, conduct seminars and discussions. These programmes not only make law teaching more meaningful but practical aspects of law practices and procedures are also taken care of as an inbuilt component of legal training.

The Department of Law, Kurukshetra University stands on a strong foundation of rigorous scholarship, practical training, and a deep respect for the rule of law. In an ever-changing global landscape, legal education must not only inform but also inspire—and that is the standard we uphold every day. At our department, we strive to cultivate critical thinking, ethical responsibility, and professional competence among our students. Through a dynamic curriculum, interactive teaching methods, moot courts, legal aid initiatives, research projects, and internships, we prepare our students to meet the complex challenges of modern legal practice. We are proud of our dedicated faculty members, whose expertise spans diverse areas of law and whose research contributes meaningfully to academic discourse and policy development. Their mentorship plays a vital role in shaping confident, capable, and socially responsible legal professionals. Beyond academics, we emphasize values—justice, fairness, equality, and service to society. We believe that law is not merely a profession but a powerful instrument for social transformation. Our graduates carry forward this vision, serving as advocates, judges, scholars, policymakers, and leaders across various sectors.
