O.P. Jindal and La Trobe Partnership

Study law in India, then complete an Australian Juris Doctor

La Trobe University and O.P. Jindal Law School have partnered to offer Indian students the opportunity to study in Australia.

After completing your Indian law degree with O.P. Jindal Law School, you could complete an Australian law qualification in just two years instead of three with La Trobe’s Juris Doctor.

At La Trobe, you will be studying at a law school ranked in the world’s top 2001, while living in one of the world’s most liveable cities2.

The Juris Doctor offers small evening classes at our City Campus, which is located in the heart of Melbourne, in the central business district and court precinct. You will have opportunities to develop practical skills in professional legal environments with leading law firms, and government and community organisations.
