Message:
Pursuing the Master of Law (LLM) at the University of Cambridge has been incredibly rewarding, both academically and personally.
The rigorous curriculum at Cambridge challenged me to think critically about the law and deepened my understanding of core legal principles. Engaging with world-class faculty during class discussions and workshops further enhanced my learning experience. I particularly enjoyed the classes in advanced private law, privacy law, and international environmental law.
Acting as the Co-Convenor of the 9th Cambridge Arbitration Day allowed me to collaborate with peers who share my interest in international arbitration and connect with leading experts in the field.
Beyond the classroom, interacting with students from varied cultural and academic backgrounds was the highlight of my Cambridge experience. The vibrant international community at Darwin College made me feel at home early in the program. I fostered friendships with people pursuing various disciplines and they motivated and supported me throughout the year. I will always cherish the interesting conversations with people and the welcoming environment at Darwin College.
Living in Cambridge has been a surreal and unforgettable experience. I am grateful to Justice Singh, the Sardar Manmohan Singh Charitable Trust and the Cambridge Trust for making the year possible for me.
