Most Ph.D programmes follow a similar pattern: the first year builds the foundations, the middle years go deep into the subject, and the final year is given over to electives, a major project and usually an internship.

Here that means constitutional, criminal, contract and corporate law, with moot courts and internships. Typical first jobs: advocate, legal associate or corporate legal roles.

The exact syllabus is set by the college or its affiliating university and changes from year to year, so ask Sai University for the current semester-wise plan.

• Can you manage ₹2.3 lakh – ₹3.3 lakh over the course, plus hostel and living costs? Ask about scholarships and education loans.
