MOOT COURT

The University School of Law and Research is a initiative of USTM to impart quality education in legal discipline in the region.

The comprehensive program aims at clarifying the basic legal concepts of the students. The internship program is aimed at providing practical education to the students while research spirit aims at innovation and contribution to the field.
A) Networking
One of the important features of mooting is that it helps you to connect and socialize with so many people across the legal spectrum with whom the students connect in the process of mooting. As students from different places and colleges come to represent themselves, it gives an opportunity to get the exposure to the outside world.
B) Researching and Writing Skills
Participating in the moot court competitions helps the students in enhancing your researching skills because it is your research on the basis of which you will be fighting your case and representing your side and it also helps you in framing a good moot court memorial on the basis of which the other team would raise objections and question you. This will also help in enhancing your skills as to how to adapt to prompt situations and how you tackle situations where you are at unease.
C) Building Confidence
Mooting helps an individual to build his confidence in communicating and putting his view in front of the people. It helps a person to build his confidence to such an extent that he does not fear to question or to speak in front of anybody and can fight cases efficiently.
D) Practical Knowledge
Mooting helps in giving the practical implication and knowledge to the students who are studying law in such a way which they will never find in the books and would be unaware of, as practical and theoretical knowledge are like two different sides of the same coin and to pass the hurdle you need to study both of them although both look same but are totally opposite in reality.
E) Team Work Moot court competitions take place in the school or colleges who organizes it and the various teams from different colleges come and participate in the event. The team comprises of 3 students with one as the researcher and the other two as the speakers presenting their arguments on either side. This teaches the students to perform well when they are together in as a team and analyze what are their strengths and weakness, how can they work upon them to achieve maximum efficiency. It also helps to work with people who are different from you and it also teaches how to coordinate with each other.
