Moot court is an elegant concoction of researching, drafting, and pleading. It is the art of learning the central tenets of advocacy. Clinical education, learning through experience, is imperative for education to prepare for the cut-throat competition of the 21st century. Mooting is one such activity that is an important part of clinical legal education. AURO Litigious Committee was formulated to promote and propagate mooting. School of Law has organized two national moot competitions which witnessed sweeping participation. Students from all across the country, including some of the top national law schools, participated. This edition aims to establish and take us to higher levels of mooting in the country.
Lawspective is a student run committee in School of Law, Auro University with a vision to impart legal education, upholding the aim of empowering students with the tools required to succeed in this noble profession. Lawspective engages students in academic and social
activities to enhance the educational experience at the university. Lawspective organizes events and activities related to Trial Advocacy and Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) with the aim to train law students in the practice of various ADR mechanisms, Trial Advocacy and
client counselling, It aims to help the students develop practical skills, critical analytical ability, synergizing law, advocacy, counselling and mediation skills so as to fully equip the students with learning which is intellectually stimulating, socially vital and professionally enriching.
Moot court is a unique competition where law students learn through simulation of the court-room environment and they research, analyze, prepare written submissions, and present oral arguments before judges. Mooting, however, is not like public speaking or debating, rather it is an art of convincing the court in your favour. Mooting brings out in a student all the core techniques that a law student needs to build in themselves for a successful law career. Harvard Law School approved student-run moot court programs in 1910 utilizing a board of third-year students who served as advisors to first-year students. Since then, mooting has become the celebrated event that it is today.
Students of School of Law attended a Summer School Programme in Ukraine and Poland organized in association with the Ukrainian Ministry of Education. Topics covered were on the history and culture of the two countries pre and post-Soviet period, integration of European Union, public international law, politics and the role of mass media, and on the economy of Ukraine.
