Clinical legal education is a process of "learning by doing", which means that students have to acquire the experience through acting as a lawyer in real-time. Scholars say that "it is not merely a methodology of teaching or learning, it is also providing service to the people and, hence, much more practical and noble. When young students during the formative stage of their career are exposed to community legal services, they get sensitized to the problems and needs especially of the marginalized sections of the people, and feel motivated to continue to work for them when they enter professional life." Department of L&HR is well aware of this technique and incorporates it in both its curricular and extracurricular framework through the Student Legal Aid Forum UAP Chapter..

The Department is well aware of guiding graduates to their sought path in career choice and placement. Though there is a central body naming Career Counseling Centre (CCC) established under DSW, which is specially designed to provide career advisory services to the students and to the alumni of the University, however, the department also has its own events to support that. The CCC performs its activities through arranging lectures, seminars, workshops, discussions, mock interviews, etc with the purpose to hone the skills of the students according to the market need for the best job opportunities.
