Otago Law

We are touring New Zealand to talk about the Otago Law degree and the great and varied career opportunities it offers to everyone who takes up the degree. You’ll learn what a Law degree involves and why it’s a great choice for university study. Law is training for life! Practical examples of how we teach the law will also feature in the session.

We will also have a presenter from our Otago Humanities division to speak about our Bachelor of Arts degree. So if you are considering a BA please come along too!

These career events are open to year 12 and 13 students. Parents are welcome to attend.
