Through the study of Law, you will arm yourself with a skill set that meets the high demands of many careers, inside and outside of the legal profession. You can complement your legal study with a wide range of subjects in the humanities, social sciences, cultures and languages. Your BA/LLB study will help you to develop strong capabilities for many careers. You will develop knowledge of the law and its implications, and a sense of justice and public responsibility. Our graduates can be found practising law in New Zealand and worldwide, and pursuing the new opportunities opened up by changes and developments in society, technology and business.With a Bachelor of Arts majoring in Asian Studies you can choose from a wide range of courses on film, literature, politics, history, popular culture, philosophy, geography, economics and anthropology. Some courses focus on a particular part of Asia and other courses offer pan-Asian perspectives. We also encourage you to take advantage of exchange opportunities to live and study in Asian countries.
