In addition to what you have mentioned, does anyone have any idea if law firms will consider this degree for IP transaction law? I wanted to do the LLM in IP and technology law course and was wondering if the course was worth it.
Jindal has also recently started giving the same degree to their online LLM students as their offline LLM students, causing a lot of resentments among the latter and leading to many withdrawals. These are plain facts. I personally feel that there is nothing wrong with online degrees provided the rigour is maintained. I have done online courses myself from foreign universities and liked those myself. Jindal did start a good initiative, but so long as the UGC does not relax its stance on the online LLM matter, it is not likely to be recognised by other universities in India.
2. No.
3. None.
4. None whatsoever.
5. Not any assignment in India that requires an LLM to be the qualifying criterion.
1. Is the online LLM 1 year program offered by Jindal Global Law School(JGLS) in collaboration with upGrad UGC recognised?
2. Whether other universities in India recognise this online LLM program for the purpose of PhD?
3. Credibility and recognition of this online LLM program in the current recruitment market?
4. Any benefits of this LLM program for job opportunities outside India?
5. Can a person take up teaching assignments after completing this online 1 year LLM program?
Can someone share insights on the above? Thanks!
