Welcome to Barishal Law College, established in 1963, where knowledge meets justice, and education inspires change. Located in the heart of Barishal City, we are one of the region’s leading institutions dedicated exclusively to legal education, research and advocacy. For decades, our college has been shaping the next generation of lawyers, judges, and leaders who are committed to building a just and equitable society. In 2023, the college was temporarily renamed “Shahid Abdur Rab Serniabat Law College” to honor the contribution of the late leader.
Later, the institution restored its original name, Barishal Law College, to preserve its historical identity and institutional continuity.
