Practical based learning Globalization and changing dimensions of the Indian economy, society and polity have thrown up new challenges in law enforcement. With crime rates shooting up high, civil justice and cyber security systems are under severe stress. Legal education can thus develop the human resources and idealism needed to strengthen the legal system. ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA Ÿ Class XII students appeared/waiting for final results Ÿ As per Gujarat University and Bar Council of India rules and regulations In order to produce new-age lawyers who will contribute to national development and the much-needed social change, Unitedworld has established Unitedworld School of Law. This law school will provide advanced legal education to the youth of India and make them competent to face the challenges they will face as modern law professionals. The doors of Supreme courts were barred to Indian practitioners in 1840’s. It was not before 1920s that quality legal education became easily accessible in India. Ever since, legal education has been traditionally offered as a three year graduate degree, after successful completion of which, the LL.B (Bachelor of law) or B.L (Bachelor of Law) degree is conferred upon. For ensuring quality legal education in India, a standard minimum curriculum is prescribed to be taught in an institution to be eligible for the grant of a law degree. Periodic supervision of law institutions is also done to evaluate their teaching methodology and curriculum so as to ensure that the required standards of legal education are being met with. However, the structure was revised in 1987 to meet the demand of changing times. An experiment was instituted upon, in terms of establishing specialized law universities. These universities were solely devoted to raise the academic standards of legal education and thus the legal profession in India. OUR ADVISORY COUNCIL LEGAL SERVICES CLINIC Unitedworld School of Law cherishes patronage of some of the most distinguished and seasoned retired judicial officers and highbrow senior lawyers as advisors to our faculty as well as our students to ensure educational excellence. Our advisors constantly suggest the faculty members to devote their spare time to research and case studies. Under the guidance of our advisory councils, the faculty undertakes various interactive teaching methodologies. This keeps the learning process beyond mundane classroom study. The Unitedworld School of Law under the aegis of Gujarat State Legal Services Authority and with the cooperation and support of Gandhinagar District Legal Services authority has set up a ‘Legal Services Clinic’ for free and competent legal services to the residents of surrounding villages at its college campus, Karnavati Knowledge Village at Uvarsad. The ceremony was inaugurated by the Hon’ble Mr. Justice K.S. Jhaveri who was the Chief Guest of the function on 22nd February, 2015 Our thought pedagogy creates a stimulating experience of comfortable learning environment for students to reach the pinnacle of their potential. The main objective of this clinic is to entertain the needs of the poor and needy people in the neighboring villages. As is evident Legal Services Clinics are intended to provide easily accessible but free and competent legal services to the large population living in and around Uvarsad village which is one of the thrust area as envisioned by the Unitedworld. The Gandhinagar District Legal Services Authority will periodically send their panel advocates to provide free legal advice to the people. Moreover the student volunteers will be also attempting to resolve the disputes of the people in the locality thereby preventing the disputes from maturing into litigation reducing the burden upon the already overloaded courts. 78 79 ACADEMIC CONTRIBUTORS GENERAL ACADEMIC ADVISORY COUNCIL PROF.

UNITEDWORLD INSTITUTE OF MEDIA & COMMUNICATION 86 87 UNITEDWORLD INSTITUTE OF MEDIA & COMMUNICATION UNITEDWORLD INSTITUTE OF MEDIA & COMMUNICATION OVERVIEW STUDY HIGHLIGHTS Ÿ Seasoned industry experts to give the best hands-on experience about the courses Ÿ Unique environment that brings together studio-based learning Ÿ Enhancement of practical and professional skills Ÿ Media and entertainment industry is dependent on the overall economy of the c o u n t r y. A g e n t l e g l o b a l e c o n o m i c environment and a stable central government in India are likely to have prompted the last Central Economic Survey to suggest that India has reached a position where a double-digit medium-term growth trajectory is possible. A creative environment to let the young minds explore their imaginations ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA Ÿ Minimum 10 + 2, higher secondary education with Minimum 50% aggregate score from any recognized higher secondary school board Ÿ Clearance and merit of Aptitude Analysis Exam for admission Digital on the Roll In the media sector, digital media continued its rapid penetration, as indicated by the stupendous 44.5 per cent growth in digital advertising in 2014 over 2013. One of the major highlights in 2014 was the announcement of ‘Digital India: A programme to transform India into a digitally empowered society and knowledge economy’ by the government. India topped as the world’s fastest growing smart phone market and by the end of 2014, India had around 116 million internet enabled smart phones and the number is expected to reach 435 million by the year 2019, almost four times. The print sector continues to remain a highly fragmented space, at the national and regional level. In 2014, the print industry witnessed a rise in circulation revenues in tier II and III cities, on the back of rising cover prices and subscriptions, aided by low media penetration, population growth and rising income and literacy levels. The films sector was a mixed bag in 2014 with some films creating box office records, while several were unable to attract audiences to the theatre and profitability was impacted, overall. The exhibition sector saw several players expanding their footprint; both organically (especially in Tier II and Tier III cities) and through acquisitions (like the Carnival Cinema). The radio sector saw the much awaited movement in Phase III auctions, with the government giving the go ahead for partial auctions across 69 cities, where potentially 135 channels are up for grabs. Flawless & Timely Execution of Media & Entertainment Projects The building blocks for future growth have been put in place in 2014 by offerings: such as new spectrum for mobile, ongoing digitization in cable, consolidation in exhibition and Phase III auctions for radio. India now needs to ensure flawless and timely execution of these policies. Growth drivers for employment in the MEDIA & ENTERTAINMENT Sector The total current employment in the Media & Entertainment sector, including small and big players, is estimated at 2 million, and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 13 per cent to reach 2.8 million by 2017. The Indian Media and Entertainment sector which is expected to grow at a CAGR of 13.9 per cent to reach INR1,964 billion by 2019 has a high demand for skilled professionals across each of its sub-sectors. Expansion in tier 2 and 3 markets in India: Real estate developers have shifted their focus to tier 2 and 3 markets given the rapid urbanization, low cost of real estate, availability of land, low advertising costs, improving standards of living and growing spending power in these markets. Hiring and retaining talent Lack of talent remains a challenge for media segments, especially for the entertainment industry. While there are many journalism & media schools in India, quality remains a challenge. Across India, approximately 35 per cent of the total people employed in the M&E sector work with the film sector. A majority of them are contract workers/ freelancers as opposed to full-time employees. In the talent-driven media sector, companies could potentially differentiate themselves based on their ability to attract and retain the right people (for example, in the knowledge-intensive content development sector or RJ-dependent radio sector). In animation and VFX, the spike in outsourcing activities has created demand for professionals such as character designers, key frame animators, 3D modellers, layout artists, etc. Over the years, with consumer media consumption pattern gradually shifting towards the digital platform, digital media has become an important component of the M&E industry. Consumers have gone beyond traditional TV sets, radio sets, newspapers and magazines for media and are increasingly using mobile devices to access media and entertainment. This has resulted in an increased demand for skilled professionals such as app developers, software testers, programmers, etc. chain are expected to create high demand. The skill set required for the industry is changing with incorporation and usage of modern technology. The industry needs to incentivize up-skilling of workforce to cope up with the changes including digitization, growth in multilingual markets, new technologies and convergence that demand additional skill sets for the workforce. India’s M&E industry’s is reliance on advertising has resulted in increased demand for workforce in media planning/buying, ad development and copy writing. Professionals with training and experience across the advertising value Keeping all of the above in mind, the untiedworld group is launching Institute of Media & Communication (UIMC) as a modern integrated digital-savvy institute of nurturing talent for this creative industry at Bachelors and Masters levels.
