Welcome to the Nelson R. Mandela School of Law

Welcome to the Nelson R. Mandela School of Law. The Faculty of Law was established in 1961 and received permission to rename itself after former President Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela in 1998. The School of Law was formerly established under that name in 2002.  It is my honour to introduce you to our School.
