The human life is continuously subject to strives, conflicts, disputes and complaints. This leads to the need for experts in the various laws to deal with the situations. Similarly, the requirement for legal academicians cannot be overruled. Under both the aforesaid circumstances, the role of specialization in the legal education becomes more prominent. A well-trained law graduate when completes qualitative master’s degree, he is likely to emerge as an asset for the society, irrespective of his career choice. The Indian legal education system regulated under the Advocates Act,1948 and its Allied Rules has undergone considerable change in last few years. At present, the one-year Masters Degree in law is the norm in India. It has passed various stages to reach the present level of imparting the L.L.M. in one year. Different Universities across the country follow their own system and syllabus, subject to minimum requirements mandated by the Bar Council of India. The researchers as a result of own experiences feel that if one-year course has to be continued with success, certain changes are required in it. Else, the same two-year pattern may be adopted. The practical understanding of the needs of the students pursuing the Master Degree is law forms the basis of the present research paper.
