Arts students are better suited to study law. Why are you accepting students from all streams?

The Arts have not captured the law as a discipline. To the contrary, Bhutan needs all kinds of lawyers, not just those who studied the arts in high school, but also those who are good at maths, science, business, and planning. The law is a diverse profession. Two examples:

  1. We will need environmental lawyers who know not just how to find relevant laws, but also how to understand the science and politics of climate change and sustainable development.
  2. We will need corporate lawyers who understand not just how to draft a contract, but also how to ensure that those documents reflect a viable business model that will work in Bhutan, and produce benefits for Bhutanese citizens.

Thus, to take up this diverse profession and to prepare layers with basics of multiple understanding and learning, applicants from all subject streams are welcome.
