Bachelors in Law
Law studies have become increasingly
popular and today the profession offers
tremendous career scope and prospects for
the youth. Keeping in mind the importance
of this for young women, Kinnaird College
felt a compelling need to introduce law at
Bachelors level.
This five- year joint BA-LL.B degree is
designed for students seeking a challenging
and rigorous, interdisciplinary exposure to
law and its related disciplines. While the
focal point is the Pakistani legal system,
the teaching methodology encompasses a
critical and comparative approach to broaden
perspectives and sharpen analytical skills of
the students. The ambit of studies is not any
laws as they exist and operate, but also how
policy impacts laws, and the interplay of law
and policy.
Studying law develops an understanding of
the levels of power in our society in a way
that is even more effective than that of political
science because law is directly concerned
with power and concerns every part of life.
The Department of Law will offer an extensive
curriculum, emphasizing skills in courses

such as legal writing, drafting, advocacy and

legal argumentation. Kinnaird also aims to be
the first women only law college in the Punjab
providing intensive legal study and research
opportunities.

Academic Rules & Regulations

How a Semester system works:
A Semester system divides the academic year into two 16-18 weeks
duration. The academic year starts with the Fall semester in September
and ends with the Spring semester in May. A four year Program thus has
eight semesters.
Credit Hour
A Student gains one credit hour by attending 16 hours of classes. Most
courses are of 3 credit hours, which means a student is required to attend
48 hours of class teaching to complete a course. The courses in science
subjects are of 4 credit hours that include 48 contact hours of class
teaching and 32 contact hours of lab work.
For a BFA, a student is required to attend 96 hours of studio classes for a
3 credit hour course.
Course Registration
All students, after consulting their Head of departments may register
themselves in courses they decide to take in each semester. Registration
dates are announced well before time and students are required to register
themselves online during those dates. New students can get their online
login password from their respective departments.
Add/Drop a Course
Students are allowed to drop a course within two weeks of the
commencement of the semester.

Withdrawal of a Course
A written request for withdrawal from any course must be approved by
the head of the department and submitted to exam cell within one week
before the midterm exams. However, a W will appear on the transcript
and fees paid for such courses will neither be refunded nor carried over
to the next semester. Student will have to pay the course repeating fee
whenever she registers for the course again.

assigned by the Course Instructor are based on either the Absolute

Marking System or the Relative Marking System.

Class Attendance
Students are expected to attend every class for each course in which
they are enrolled. Absences of more than six lecture hours in 3 credit
hours course and 4 lecture hours in 2 credit hours course will lead to
denial of pursing the course, an F on the transcript and the student will
have to repeat the course whenever offered again.

Relative Marking System

In this system the overall grading in the class is done so that students can
be compared with each other. The top students will be assigned A grade
while the students who get the lowest marks will be given D or F.

Course Load in a Semester

Students can register for a maximum of 18 credit hours in a regular
semester including repeating courses and a maximum of 6 credit hours
in the summer semester for an undergraduate program. [Link] students
can take up to a total of 12 credit hours per semester in the regular
semester and a maximum of 6 credit hours in the summer semester.
Academic Grading Policy
The performance of students is assessed during the course through a
variety of assessment procedures such as written assignments, quizzes,
projects, case studies, oral presentations, tests and examinations or
any other method considered appropriate by the course teachers and
the College. Mid-term and Final examinations contribute 60% and other
assessment tasks contribute 40% to the final grade. It is at the discretion
of the course teacher to decide on the weightage of all assessment tasks.
Kinnaird strictly follows a 4-point grading system similar to the one
prevalent in most accredited institutions around the globe. All grades

60

Absolute Marking System

In this system the student grade is given on the basis of the marks
obtained by student on an assessment item. For example, if her marks
are between 85 - 89 she will get an A grade and if her marks are between
73 -75 she will get a B grade.

3.
Failure to appear in the mid-term or final examinations
Course Repeat
Grades earned in each semester will appear on the students transcript.
Students receiving an F grade must repeat the course by re-taking the
entire course including attending all classes and redoing all course work
(tests, quizzes, assignments etc.) whenever the course is offered again
after payment of the fee. Students receiving a grade C+ or below for
undergraduate program must repeat the course if they fail to maintain a
minimum CGPA of 2.50. Postgraduate students receiving grade B- or
below must repeat the course if they fail to maintain a minimum CGPA of 3.0.
A course can be repeated only once for postgraduate students.
The old grade will remain in the transcript but it will not be included in
CGPA calculation and new grade received will be indicated by an asterisk
(**) on the transcript indicating the grade was received in a course retake.
Academic Probation and Dismissal
Students who fail to maintain a minimum CGPA of 2.5 for undergraduate
program and CGPA of 3.0 for graduate program will be put on probation
for the next semester. If at the end of that semester they fail to attain
the required CGPA, they will be dropped from the program altogether.
