BBM-LL.B at Kathmandu University School of Law

In this video, Rishikesh Wagle, Dean of the School of Law at KU, and Professor Bipin Adhikari, Professor at KU, elaborate on the BBM-LLB program, an integrated 5-year course combining Bachelor of Business Management and Bachelor of Law. The program aims to produce modern lawyers equipped with both legal and management skills, qualifying graduates to apply for bar membership and practice law in Nepal. This degree provides a significant advantage for those looking to work in the corporate sector and public enterprises by meeting all the requirements of a professional undergraduate law degree.

The program offers authentic fee structures and a need-based scholarship scheme, benefiting 10% of the students. Additionally, there are endowment scholarship programs available. The integrated study approach not only enhances legal knowledge but also equips students with essential management skills, preparing them for a competitive edge in the business sector, including the practice of business law in courts and quasi-judicial tribunals.

Given the recent changes in the Nepalese economy and the global economic scenario, there is a growing demand for professionals who possess a blend of legal knowledge and business acumen. The BBM-LLB program addresses this need by developing skilled lawyers capable of enhancing productivity in various sectors.
