Course details

Summary

The degree of Doctor of Philosophy is awarded by the University for research carried out under the supervision of at least two staff members. A PhD can also be presented as a PhD with Publication or a PhD with a Creative Practice Component. The research, which must be the candidate's own work, is written up as a thesis, and may include papers published or intended to be published. The thesis is required to present the case for the research, outline the research undertaken and the findings and conclusions of that research. There is no course work for this degree.

Tikanga Maori (Maori Cultural Studies) teaches you the skills required for a community leadership role in the enhancement of Maori development. In today's rapidly evolving world you will establish a basic, yet necessary understanding of the Maori worldview and its relation to other cultures and worlds. Our range of exciting cultural papers is suitable for people of all ethnicities, and brings about a new dimension to the evolving world of Maori performing and visual arts. The programme hosts an eclectic selection of new and traditional elements including kapa haka, nga taonga puoro and creative technologies, and promises a field of study delivered by quality academics who are fluent in Maori, and some in Pacific and European languages. Tikanga Maori provides the option of introductory courses through to more advanced courses.
