Students of Jindal Global Law School have received opportunities to pursue global legal internships in the United States of America, United Kingdom, China, Australia and Abu Dhabi. They have been invited to work in international law firms, NGOs and government agencies besides being given an opportunity to work as judicial clerks with the Supreme Court of Hawaii.
The year 2017 has seen several international internships & clerkship opportunities added to an already impressive range of practical training opportunities that Jindal Global Law School (JGLS) offers to its students. The notable ones added this year included Australia’s leading corporate & IP law firm Mitry Lawyers, and Attorney General’s Department (AGD) of Australia. 2 students have been selected to start their month long internship at the Mitry Lawyer’s offices in Sydney during the summer term break of 2017, while 4 JGLS students will be heading to the AGD’s office in Sydney during the winter term break of 2017-18. The Founding Vice-Chancellor of O.P. Jindal Global University, Prof. (Dr.) C. Raj Kumar said, “This is a wonderful opportunity for practical learning of global regulatory practice for JGLS students. The international exposure will help provide our students with an in-depth understanding of international laws and justice framework.”
The existing bouquet of international internships at JGLS include the leading US international law firm, White & Case at their London & Abu Dhabi offices, the Supreme Court of State of Hawaii in Honululu (USA) and Zhicheng Public Interest Law Firm in Beijing, China. Assistant Dean of Careers Prof. Anuranjan Sethi said, “We are committed to growing the international recruiter and internship organization base at JGLS, so that our students can learn and gain strong grounding for taking up global leadership roles within law and beyond”.
In addition to the international internships at JGLS, the domestic recruiter & internship organization base has also grown quite significantly. Over 115 leading organizations have now signed up for recruitments through the University organized recruitment process.
The graduating batch of 2017 has found internship and employment opportunities with leading law firms, corporates, senior counsels, think-tanks, start-ups, and public policy organizations, among others.

Can we have some information about JGLS placements in addition to internships? This is of more interest to law aspirants. We would also appreciate information on where students of other law schools intern. Do only student of the leading NLUs and JGLS do foreign internships, or do all NLUs offer it? We would also lie to know which reputed universities students of law schools go for masters programmes and scholarships received. All this will help us choose between different NLUs, and between non-NLUs like JGLS, Symbi GLC, Amity etc.
Thank you.

In India Today and Outlook ranking JGLS is not even ranked.

I want to know what is the correct one and where JGLS should be in our preference list?
1. If my daughter declines Jindal and chooses Symbiosis or Amity, we save money with which she can do a one-year master's abroad. Which has better job prospects in India: BALLB from Symbiosis/Amity + foreign master's or just BALLB from Jindal?
2. Is it better to choose Symbiosis/Jindal/Amity over new NLUs?
It would be very helpful if Legally India can do a Q&A session or something to help students and parents. There is a complete lack of guidance for us.
True, everything ultimately boils down to a student's capabilities, how dedicated s/he is; but I think it would be a little unfair to Jindal to say that Symbi and Jindal are at the same level.
