Program Structure

The development of this program of MBA Healthcare Management and Law at National Law University Odisha is rooted in the urgent need for an integrated, interdisciplinary approach needed in healthcare leadership in India and the world. Recognising the importance of the interplay between the medical service delivery, legal accountability, ethical considerations, and effective management, the course has been designed to equip future healthcare professionals with the tools to navigate this interaction.

The course curriculum design has drawn inspiration from globally recognised programs such as LLM in Law and Medical Ethics at the University of Edinburgh, LLM in Health, Law, and Society at the University of Bristol, and Healthcare Ethics and Law at Manchester University. Other similar international programs are offered at the University of Nottingham Trent, Cardiff University, Liverpool University, Leicester University, T.H. Chan School of Public Health, and Teesside University. Inspiration has also been taken from programs like PG Diplomas, Master’s Programs in the domains of health, management and law offered by various premier Indian Institutes as well. The unique feature of this program is that every course has legal aspects to enrich the practicalities faced in the health sector.

The focus of this program is three-fold:

  • Healthcare at the Institutional, Individual and Community Level: This is aimed at understanding the changing dynamics of health and healthcare, health-seeking behaviour, and the actors engaged in providing healthcare. This includes both the public and private entities.
  • Role of Law and Legal Provisions: The health of individuals and the community is important for the development of individuals, the community and the nation. The quality of healthcare services is not only determined by the efficiency of the healthcare professionals but also by the legal provisions that bind the institutions and the individuals offering healthcare services. The legal provisions also help in regulating and governing the healthcare sector/industry and modifying the behaviour of individuals. Every course offered in the program will give substantial weightage to the knowledge domain of law and its practical aspects
  • Management of Healthcare Services: The impact of healthcare services is largely determined by how the process, methods and tools are used to plan and deliver. Management of people, materials, resources, finance, and various stakeholders is important to provide efficient healthcare services.

To bridge the gap between legal theory and praxis, an understanding of the social sciences is essential. Law is after all a profession that works in a socio-political context, and therefore for a legal practitioner training in the liberal arts is a prerequisite. National Law University Odisha offers a five year-integrated B.A.LL.B programme that combines training in law with knowledge of the social sciences. The liberal arts component of the B.A.LL.B program includes five arts subjects (Political Science, Sociology, Economics and English), which are supplemented by a range of law courses; and together they provide a broad based multidisciplinary foundation to the curricula.

National Law University Odisha offers one-year LL.M Degree Programme for students committed to make career in law teaching. The University offering LL.M (one-year) programme embodies Courses comprising 03 Foundation/Compulsory papers (three credits each), 06 Optional/Specialization Papers (two credits each) to be notified in each semester and Dissertation (3 Credits).
