Law in Tauranga
The key Law papers at 100, 200, and 300 levels for the LLB degree (and the Law Major for the Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Climate Change degrees) - including LEGAL307-23D Land - are based on the ground-breaking approach to Law teaching pioneered by Te Piringa Faculty of Law in Tauranga for the successful Diploma in Law programme - which is uniquely focused on student learning through attending in person small group intensive 2 hour Workshops at our Tauranga campus led by our experienced and highly qualified Tauranga based Teaching Fellows.
The in person small group intensive 2 hour Workshops for this paper are timetabled at 6pm-8pm on Thursdays at our Tauranga campus. There are 6 2 hour Workshops for this paper.
Alternative online Workshops are also available via zoom for students who are unable to attend class in person in Tauranga.
Lectures for this paper are delivered via Flexi Async mode.
The free inter-campus University shuttle also provides our students with access to facilities and programmes at our campuses in both Hamilton and Tauranga.
