In June 2011, DBU College of Law was first established and commenced its operation on a department level under the College of Social Science and Humanities. The law program was launched with fifty regular and forty-one extension students enrolled in the LL.B program. During the time of its establishment, there were only four academics and one administrative staff. In 2012, the DBU law department was upgraded to a College level following a major restructuring of academic units in the university and had come a long way since then.

In 2018 academic year, the College launched its first LL.M program in Business and Investment Law. Currently, twenty-six students are enrolled in the LL.M program.

The number of academic staff has significantly reached above thirty and the number of students has quadrupled reaching two hundred and eighty-seven. In 2016, the first thirty-three batch of the regular LL.B program students have graduated after successfully passing the National Exit Examination.

Currently, eight of the academic staffs are on a PhD study leave working in the areas of Human Rights, Federalism, Tax and Investment, and International Trade Law; whereas two academic staffs of the College are pursuing their LL.M studies.
