PREFACE
The accomplishment of anything worthwhile, whether large or small, depends on the completion
of goals, activities and milestones. An effective curriculum offers all these things. It provides
administrators, teachers and students with structure and sense of progression. Therefore, the
importance and impact of curriculum cannot be overstated.
A curriculum is more than putting together a set of academically required subjects. Several
things must be considered such as the learning needs of students; the consensus of teachers and
administrators; the expectations of the community promoted a sense of order and structure in the
pursuit of academic success.
Designing a curriculum involves the interaction of several participants, reaching beyond the
academic wall to impact the entire community. Without an effective curriculum, students would
not be able to understand or meet the challenges of society. A curriculum prepares an individual
with the knowledge to be successful, confident and responsible citizens.
The curriculum of subject is described as a throbbing pulse of a nation. By viewing curriculum

one can judge the stage of development and its pace of socio-economic development of a nation.
With the advent of new technology, the world has turned into a global village. In view of
tremendous research taking place world over new ideas and information pours in like of a stream
of fresh water, making it imperative to update the curricula after regular intervals, for introducing
latest development and innovation in the relevant field of knowledge.
Law is a system of rules and guidelines which are enforced through social institutions to govern
behavior, wherever possible. It shapes politics, economics and society in numerous ways and
serves as a social mediator of relations between people.

Many of the most troubling moral and political issues that we face are addressed in our society as
legal issues. An acquaintance with the law, an awareness of some of the more important legal
decisions that have been made in the last few years tells us more about ourselves than almost any
other institution or practice.
Philosophy of Law reflects the conviction that the law, when it is studied in relation to
fundamental social issues, is one of the most fascinating subjects to which we can be exposed. It
is also a subject about which most of us already have intuitions. There is great joy (and often
relief) in the discovery that an outcome in a given case or line of reasoning adopted by a judge to
explain that outcome captures one of our own (not always fully articulated) opinions.
Each section of Philosophy of Law is organized around a controversial issue that raises important
questions for which there are often more than one good answer. Indeed, each segment raises
more questions than it answers. This is not intended to frustrate but to provoke thought, and to
encourage anyone who elects to pursue a career in Law to develop a clearer idea of their own
values and beliefs and to provide them with the means and the confidence to articulate and
defend those beliefs.

DEPARTMENT OF LAW
INTRODUCTION TO DEPARTMENT OF LAW
The Law department combines the richness of our liberal arts education with a solid
professional program in Law. Its pedagogical approach to Law is analytical, critical and
comparative and high premium is placed on faculty research and policy output. With the
induction of qualified faculty, the Law department will evolve into School of Law in few years.
The Shaheed Benazir Bhutto Women University has upheld a tradition of diversity, innovation
and opportunity and is now planning to provide legal education that combines an understanding
of the theory, the philosophy and the practice of law.
Such an institution had been greatly awaited and finely needed owing the perpetually increasing
number of female candidates in the province intending to seek Legal Education. Shaheed Benazir
Bhutto Women University by way of its establishment of Law Department provided this and
more by offering legal education with dynamism. As a developing nation, it is imperative that we
require professional management, technical and research skills in order to allow our nation to be
able to compete in today’s global arena. We must expand our intellectual horizons so that
females of our country can become an equal participant in the global village that the technology
of the 21st century has created.
BACKGROUND
The history of law or legal history is the history of our race, and the personification of its
experience. Law developed before history was even recorded and rules were recognized to
reconcile discussions before written laws or courts ever existed. This dates back to the age of the
ancient Egyptians and Babylonians. Different to idea, law was discovered and not invented. It
was systematically discovered, established on historical experiences and historical events of
generations for years and centuries.

Law is a system of rules and guidelines which are enforced through social institutions to
govern behavior, wherever possible. It shapes politics, economics and society in numerous ways
and serves as a social mediator of relations between people. Contract law regulates everything
from buying a bus ticket to trading on derivatives markets. Property law defines rights and
obligations related to the transfer and title of personal and real property. Trust law applies to
assets held for investment and financial security, while tort law allows claims for compensation
if a person's rights or property are harmed. If the harm is criminalized in legislation, criminal
law offers means by which the state can prosecute the perpetrator. Constitutional law provides a
framework for the creation of law, the protection of human rights and the election of political
representatives. Administrative law is used to review the decisions of government agencies,
while international law governs affairs between sovereign states in activities ranging
from trade to environmental regulation or military action. Writing in 350 BC,
the Greek philosopher Aristotle declared, "The rule of law is better than the rule of any
individual."
Legal systems elaborate rights and responsibilities in a variety of ways. A general

distinction can be made between civil law jurisdictions, which codify their laws, and common
law systems, where judge made law is not consolidated. In some countries, religion informs the
law. Law provides a rich source of scholarly inquiry, into legal history, philosophy, economic
analysis or sociology. Law also raises important and complex issues concerning equality,
fairness and justice. "In its majestic equality", said the author Anatole France in 1894, "the law
forbids rich and poor alike sleeping under bridges, begging in the streets and stealing loaves of
bread." In a typical democracy, the central institutions for interpreting and creating law are the
three main branches of government, namely an impartial judiciary, a democratic legislature, and
an accountable executive.
To implement and enforce the law and provide services to the public, a government's
bureaucracy, the military and police are vital. While all these organs of the state are creatures
created and bound by law, an independent legal profession and a vibrant civil society inform and
support their progress.

VALUES
Our values are excellence, integrity, team work and prosperity.
MISSION
The Law Department of Shaheed Benazir Bhutto Women University contributes to

sustainable National Development by providing courses and program that are market specific,
career oriented and pertinent to the future and promotes an environment that encourages learning
both inside and outside the lecture halls.
The Department of Law at Shaheed Benazir Bhutto Women University is dedicated to

integrating faith and reason in the search for truth through a focus on morality and social justice.
The mission of the Department of Law is

which to acquire knowledge of the law in its broad international, intercultural, and
interdisciplinary contexts so that they may acquire the professional skills and ethical
grounding to become excellent lawyers and leaders in their communities and chosen
professions;
 To promote knowledge and understanding of the law and related disciplines by providing
its faculty with the resources and intellectual environment to excel in teaching and
scholarship;
 To ensure that all members of the University Law department’s community have the
opportunity, and are encouraged, to provide service to the profession and to the local,
national, and international community;

 Develop a supportive and demanding student-centered learning environment.
GOALS & OBJECTIVES
There is a growing realization in Pakistan that equal participation of female in all walks
of life is inevitable for political, social and economic development. The traditional patriarchal
society requires an effort on the part of everyone, not in the least women themselves, to
understand female’s rights and privileges as also their true role in society. Legal education for
female can not only prepare them for rightful participation in national development but can also
equip them with knowledge to better protect their rights. There is also a need to increase the
number of female legal practitioners in the country in general and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in
particular to improve their present small percentage vis-à-vis male practitioners.

The objectives of Law department are
1. To build upon the academic quality and learning environment of the university.
2. To enhance the quality of student life.
3. To embrace diversity.
4. To enhance the public image of the university and to establish 1st female Law Department
to impart quality education for females.
5. To promote research and scholarly activities among the young female researchers in the
field of Law.
6. To provide necessary tools for female researchers in the NGO’s Section within the field
of Law and Human Rights.
7. Preparation of moot court competitions (mock trial) among students in order to give legal
studies in such a way that theoretical analysis of legal rules are interwoven with issues of
practical interest.

DEAPRTMENT OF LAW
5-YEAR PROGRAM IN LAW
The LL.B curriculum is a forward-looking program that responds to contemporary

needs, taking account of changes in legal practice and new thinking in legal scholarship. The
central features of the curriculum are as follows:
 The curriculum comprises semester-length subjects that are designed to build a

sophisticated understanding of legal principles, theory, methods and processes and to
enable students to understand the connections between different areas of law.
 The teaching of core legal skills is developed in a coordinated way throughout the
curriculum. The teaching of skills is coordinated horizontally (across subjects taken at a
particular stage) and vertically (across subjects taken at different stages). The core skills
acquired in the early subjects are then reinforced in the middle years and developed in the
later year subjects.
 Significant perspectives on law (known as ‘cross-cutting influences’) are developed in a
coordinated way throughout the curriculum. The cross-cutting influences particularly
pertinent to the LL.B program include: theory, ethics, comparative approaches,
regulation, history of various kinds, indigenous culture, law and policy, intercultural
perspectives, cross-jurisdictional law and practice, law reform and policy and
interdisciplinary influences on law.
Students undertaking the LL.B develop and acquire the following generic skills:
 Attitudes towards knowledge that include valuing truth, openness to new ideas and ethics
associated with knowledge creation and usage.
 The capacity for close reading and analysis of a range of sources.
 The capacity for critical and independent thought and reflection.

 The capacity to solve problems, including through the collection and evaluation of
information.
 The capacity to communicate, both orally and in writing.
 The capacity to plan and manage time.
 The capacity to participate as a member of a team.
 Intercultural sensitivity and understanding.
MISSION STATEMENT OF THE LL.B PROGRAMME
The programme is aimed at producing competent lawyers of character, equipped for legal
practice and other law related careers. The mission statement calls for graduates to go into the
world well-prepared to meet the challenges of their time, which include personal and
organizational corruption, violence, disunity, poverty and unemployment, disease, and a crisis of
leadership.
LL.B is the first as well as the core law degree offered by the department at present. The
LL.B programme aims not only to produce law graduates but trained and skillful law
professionals who will help the society by contributing the academia, industry, civil bureaucracy,
judiciary, private sector, public sector, policy making bodies and financial institutions.
The LL.B programme prepares graduates to address these challenges of their time in a
number of ways. The programme itself envisages not only training in key legal knowledge and
skills to prepare them for success in legal practice, but also preparation for being a positive
influence through required and elective units.
LL.B PROGRAMME OBJECTIVES
The Learning Objectives of the LL.B degree programme are:

1) Inculcate in students a broad understanding of the social, political and economic contexts
within which the Pakistani and global legal system operates;

2) Equip students with knowledge and understanding of the fundamental doctrines and
principles of Law; and
3) Develop the intellectual and practical skills necessary for employment in the legal
profession and other careers.
LEARNING OUTCOMES OF THE LL.B PROGRAMME
The participants suggested that the course contents and the teaching methodology should
place emphasis upon the acquisition and development of a wide range of intellectual and
practical skills of students so that they can analyze, evaluate, synthesize and apply conceptual
information to practical legal problems. It was agreed that attention is needed to develop the
intellectual and practical skills and in particular law students should be able to develop and

Course Introduction
This is a compulsory course for all students and is introduced to develop the writing,
research and analytical skills of law students. The course will focus on basic research
strategy and how to find and use primary and secondary legal sources. The objective of
the course is to have a strong research-oriented ethos in law colleges/institutions to
enable law students to undertake both theoretical and practical research in all fields of
law and legal studies. The course is extremely useful, for law students will be required to
submit their written work for each and every module/course.
Course Objectives
Research plays an essential role in business and in public policy and management.
Increasingly, organizations undertake small-scale research projects, to find out about
matters relating to the concerns of their organization or to critically evaluate existing
policies. Both commercial firms and government institutions rely upon research to inform
their decisions, to test the effectiveness of existing policies, to predict the effects of
intended future policies, to understand management processes and decisions and to gain
insights into public preferences and opinions about public services.
- The course is designed to develop a thorough understanding of the fundamental

theoretical ideas and logic of research. These fundamental ideas underpin our
approach to research, the vast range of research methods available and the
researcher’s choice of methods.
- The course aims to develop a thorough understanding of the issues involved in
planning, designing, executing, evaluating and reporting research.
- The course aims to introduce many of the technical aspects of how to do empirical
research using some of the main data collection and analysis techniques used by
researchers.
Intended Learning Outcomes
On successful completion of this course the students will be able to:
- Have a comprehensive understanding of the techniques and methods applicable to

legal research and legal methodology.
- Conceive, design, implement and adapt a substantial piece of research with
scholarly integrity
- Evaluate and critique research methodologies.
