WSU School of law is where students learn fundamentals of legal principles, legal reasoning, substantive laws, procedural laws, skills and strategies needed for future career success. In school of Law, our university's motto “knowledge in action” is not a mere catchphrase, it is the guiding principle that will prepare students for a responsible legal practice. WSU school of law is dedicated to train in law all-rounded, critical, reasonable and socially conscious learners, develop and disseminate knowledge through scholarly research, and to provide high quality legal consultancy, legal aid services and other demand driven community services to the community.
