Maharashtra National Law University Mumbai, established under the Maharashtra National Law University Act 2014 on 20th March 2014, is one of the premier National Law Universities in India. It offers graduate, post-graduate, and research degrees in law and allied disciplines. Since its inception in 2015, the University has endeavoured to offer academic courses which include, BA. LL.B.(Hons.) five years integrated program, one year LL.M. program and Post Graduate Diploma Programmes, among others. The University continues to make newer strides in the field of legal education with the dynamic vision and leadership of Vice-Chancellor, Prof. (Dr.) Dilip Ukey.

About the Program:

Disputes are inevitable in society, which requires a robust dispute resolution mechanism to deliver justice. The Indian dispute resolution mechanism consists of Courts, Tribunals, and Alternative Dispute Resolution tools (including Arbitration, Mediation, Conciliation, Lok Adalats, etc.). Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) mechanisms have been demonstrated to be effective compared to litigation because the former provide the advantage of speedy disposal of the disputes and assists in restoring relations between the disputants. Over the last two decades, there has been momentum to encourage their usage among the legal fraternity and businesses – domestic or international.

The program will cover topics that are important for professionals in any field who deal with conflicts on a regular basis, as well as to academicians who aspire to deepen their knowledge. The Program faculty will include experienced practitioners and academicians who will supplement classroom learning with their own experiences and provide a comprehensive understanding of how arbitration and mediation work as dispute resolution mechanisms in domestic and international trade disputes.

Duration of the Course:

It is a one-year diploma. Classes will commence in May 2024 and end in March 2025. The Program will comprise 2 Semesters with 8 papers (including one Research Project).
