Research

Research Activities of the Department of Law

Department of Law, Brainware University has an extremely robust and contemporary research background. The members of the faculty are involved with publication of their works in UGC-referred or peer reviewed journals, both national and international. Most faculty members here are research scholars themselves and due to this, the research mechanism and involvement is also very deep seated. Publications have come out on both social and legal disciplines, since law can sometimes be integrated with the other social sciences. The variety of articles range from domestic procedural laws to research international concepts and conventions. The department strives to bring out at least one standard publication per month and always encourages its members to do the same.

Existing Doctoral Research Domain:

Labour law, Child rights, Mental health laws, international humanitarian laws, Intellectual Property law, Banking law, Human rights.
