NLSIU Launches Alumni Engagement Platform!

August 30, 2021

The National Law School of India University is excited to announce the launch of our new alumni engagement platform – a secure and exclusive network, that will allow alumni to network privately and reconnect with their alma mater.

Since the commencement of its first batch in 1988, our alumni numbers have grown to a strength of over 9000 members including those from our off-campus programmes. Today, the NLSIU alumni community is made up of vibrant, successful and socially engaged graduates who are reshaping their corner of the world.

Through such initiatives, we hope to further build and expand the NLSIU Community, connect our alumni with their fellow batchmates, and in future, also provide volunteering and mentoring opportunities within the community.

We encourage our alumni to join us in driving this vision forward and register on the platform.

Strengthening alumni relationships:

In 2019, the University made a significant shift in terms of appointing its first Vice Chancellor from the alumni community.  And over the last year, alumni engagement with the University has grown significantly:

  • A number of alumni have been recruited as faculty while several others have offered seminar/elective courses to our students;
  • Several alumni have returned to the University to pursue advanced degree programmes like LLM and PhD programmes;
  • Alumni have also functioned as examiners and external supervisors for PhD theses;
  • They have also contributed financially to the University, be it in terms of the Scholarship fund in the early part of the year, or the COVID relief fund which, in a short period, raised over INR 50 lakhs, or general contributions to the University. Read more on the ‘COVID Relief Fundraiser’ here.
  • The alumni association has also stepped forward to build strong alliances with the University.
