JSW-NLS-NUS Summer School Program from June 17 – June 30, 2024 | Applications Open!
The JSW School of Law is currently inviting applications for the Second Undergraduate Summer School Program for June 2024! The program will take place at JSW’s new green campus just outside of Paro, Bhutan. The courses will be taught intensively over a two-week period from June 17 – June 30, 2024. Students accepted to the program will have a choice of two out of three courses taught by legal academics from leading law schools in Asia.
About the program
The program will admit a maximum of 30 students. Students must enrol in two of the three courses offered. The timetable is designed so that students enrolling in two courses will spend around 5 hours in class per teaching day with ample breaks in between. Students have a field trip on Fridays and a free day on Saturday. Each course is taught using the seminar method, in classes of 2 to 3 hours’ duration and totaling 23 class contact hours. They are assessed by continuous modes such as reading reflection papers, student presentations of readings, class participation, and a final take-home exam to be completed a few weeks after the summer school has ended.
Who can apply?
To apply, students must meet the following criteria:
► Students must have completed their second year or higher of an undergraduate law degree (LLB or JD)
► Applicants must have a sufficient command of the English language for studying the required readings and participating in classroom discussions
