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.By studying for a Bachelor of Arts majoring in Drama, you will combine the literary study of drama with experience in aspects of performance, both individual and collective. First-year classes vary from public speaking and performance to practical study in Māori, Pacific and modern dance. Advanced Drama courses involve a full-scale, public production, providing invaluable acting training and experience of production management. As you proceed with your study at a postgraduate level, you will have opportunities in areas such as acting, writing or directing or you might choose to focus on the historical or theoretical study of drama.
