Family Law in divided into two as family Law-I and Family Law – II. Family Law –I has been
designed to introduce the fundamentals of personal laws governing Hindu & Christian family

of state and thereby of law. Criminal law is generally founded on this very premise. However, it is

ambiguous or ineffective. Nor it can be harsh arbitrary in its impact.
The subject of Crime and Punishment-I is designed to generate critical thinking among the

CONSTITUTIONAL LAW – II
Objective of the Course
To keep constitutional study abreast with modern day developments is the core concern of the
course. An endeavor is made in the course to highlight over sixty years of constitutional rule in India
and its performance in keeping federal fabric intact and the Student’s capacity building to test the
nature of Indian Constitutional Governance during the post-independence era. Theories of
federalism are a major focus of the course. Amendments shall be another focus which have played
major role in development of constitutional studies in India. Accordingly, such amendments would
be analyzed to see functional and structural changes within the Constitution of India.
Pedagogy
The quantum of inputs and consequential revisits to theoretical understanding on the subject requires
a combination of methodology and teaching aids to achieve the highest possible degree of inputs
assimilation by the Students in order to maximize the output.

PSYCHOLOGY-I

Psychology is the scientific study of behaviour and mental processes and how they are affected by an
organism's physical state, mental state and external environment. It makes one understand as to why
people behave as they do. To the lawyers it helps in understanding whether they are competent
enough to stand trial, and prepare psychological reports to help judges decide on the most
appropriate course of action. Through the psychological theories we can advance our understanding
of a diverse array of practices and processes within the criminal justice system. It is hoped that after
this course the students will have a better understanding of the human persona and the functioning of
brain and will also be able to deal more effectively with human problems.
Objectives of the Course:
1. To give an introductory design of the functioning of human mind and persona.

2. To help the students in being more effective in understanding and dealing with people.
3. To use these skills in their profession.

original and factual course of development of law, legal institutions and courts in
India.
Methodology:
There will be interactive class lectures, group discussions, movie screening, etc.
focusing on contemporary issues pertaining to modern India in the face of
changing world order. Class seminars, stand-on talks and short-term paper
presentations will also be a substitute to regular class work.

SOCIOLOGY-I
Sociology is the study of human society and social life. Sociology has many sub-
sections of study, ranging from the analysis of conversations to the development of
theories to try to understand how the entire world works. Studying sociology opens
new ways of looking at the world. It is a perspective that is grounded in careful
observation of social facts, as well as analyses of how society operates. This chapter
will introduce you to sociology and explain why it is important, how it can change
your perspective of the world around you, and give a brief history of the discipline.
