7.1 Welcome Note from the Dean, Faculty of Law & Government

It gives me great pleasure to welcome you to the Faculty of Law and Government, HELP University. Allow
me to introduce you to the philosophy practiced by the Faculty.

HELP University has been enjoying the privilege of being one of the first private universities to
introduce the UK Degree Transfer Programme (Law), which has been recognised by some very
prestigious and reputable universities in the UK. To date, we have as our affiliates Cardiff University;
University of the West of England, Bristol; Aberystwyth University; University of Liverpool,
University of Manchester, University of Sheffield, Northumbria University, University of
Hertfordshire, University of Leeds and the School of Oriental & African Studies (SOAS). The
programme has also received its full accreditation status from the Malaysian Qualifications Agency
(MQA).

2009 saw the Department expanding by introducing its Bachelor of Laws degree (the HELP LLB).
This three year law degree will enable students to develop critical thinking, analytical skills together
with the understanding of the fundamentals of the law that would enable them to join legal
practice or any organisation as employable graduates. For those wanting to go into the corporate
world, a first degree in law coupled with a post-graduate, inter alia, MBA, Master of Science in
Economic CrimeManagement, Master in Entrepreneurship, Master in Counselling or a Master in
Human Resource Management will place them in good stead. The HELP LLB was given full
accreditation in 2012 and recognized by the Legal Profession Qualifying Board (LPQB) in June 2019
for the purposes of the graduates pursuing the Certificate in Legal Practice (CLP).

The Faculty assures you of quality teaching as we have on board our teaching faculty experienced
and qualified lecturers, some of whom were former practitioners who have turned to full time
academia. A holistic approach is adopted at the Faculty in that emphasis is placed on the wholesome
development of the individual. Blended learning, peer teaching, problem based learning (PBL) and case
study analysis are adopted as part of our teaching & learning pedagogy to encourage students to
analyse, develop critical thinking and more importantly to have a growth mindset. Our commitment
in inculcating transferable skills is high on our list of priorities, as we verily believe that upon
graduation one must be employable and thus one must be equipped with the right skills and training
to face the variouschallenges as a graduate. Our commitment in doing so is evident not only with
the implementation of the study of Legal Skills and Legal Practice, both of which are taught by
practitioners; but also with the Professional Development Course. The Professional Development
Course will expose students not only to legal issues which are current but also to other areas such as
the fundamentals of Accounting for lawyers and Emotional Quotient (EQ) at the workplace.

We believe that whilst the academic staff develops their research and publication skills through their
contribution to our own refereed journal, the HELP Law Review, the students must also be exposed
to the importance of research and publications and thus in 2008 the students published the
inaugural HELP Student Law Journal. The articles in this journal are written and fully edited by the
3
students and it is our hope that through this endeavour and with some guidance from the teaching
faculty they will certainly improve their research and writing skills.

Apart from the conducive academic environment, the Department is extremely supportive of extra-
curricular activities. We encourage the students to participate and organise activities, such as
debates, charity drives and other exciting endeavours. Thus, at HELP you will gain a holistic
education.

I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate you on your decision to join HELP University
and sincerely hope that your time with us will be an interesting learning experience.

Should you need any assistance, please do not hesitate to contact the administrators of the
Department.

Best wishes,

Vasantha Punniamoorthy

7.2 Introduction to the Department of Law

The Department of Law takes great pride in its role as one of the leading providers of private legal
education in Malaysia. The development of the Department has been guided by a firm commitment
to academic and student welfare.

Founded in 1986, it is one of the country’s first private law schools and originally catered for external
students pursuing the University of London LLB program. In 1987, the Department launched the
collaborative LLB program with the University of Glamorgan (formerly known as the Polytechnic of
Wales).

Since 1987, the Department has built up its expertise and has continued to pioneer developments.
Today, the Department consists of a dedicated team of lecturers and administrators with more than
300 students registered on the UK Degree Transfer Program offered by the Department. Many of
these students have distinguished themselves and done credit to the Department through their
academic accomplishments. HELP law students have consistently achieved prize-winning
performances, such as the Leo Abse & Cohen Prize (for best first year student) and the Sweet &
Maxwell Prize (for best final year student) for three consecutive years. Other awards include the
Lord Templeman Scholarships, the Levi Award, the LexisNexis Award and the Book Prizes and
internships by law firms in Malaysia.

The Department has also been actively involved in organising various seminars, conferences and
public lectures, which have attracted high profile participation by leading academics, law
practitioners and the Malaysian judiciary.

The close rapport enjoyed by all members is another hallmark of the Department. This rapport
encourages a congenial and responsive environment, within which an intellectually exacting and
well-rounded legal education can be achieved.
