Te Reo M膩ori study options

23 November 2023

Tertiary study is a journey full of new twists and growing turns, similar to those made by our tupuna who navigated a sea of islands. Aotahi encourages you to follow the t墨 k艒uka lined pathway to Te Reo M膩ori at UC. Check out our Te Reo M膩ori study options.

HOW TO APPLY

What can you study?

Aotahi is determined to challenge the future of M膩ori and Indigenous Studies and reflect the ever-changing state of Te Ao M膩ori across its courses and through the School. We offer two programmes of study: M膩ori and Indigenous Studies, and Te Reo M膩ori.

The values of Aotahi have been modelled on the traditions of M膩ui-Tikitiki-a-Taranga 鈥 the M膩ori demigod famous for obtaining the knowledge of fire and snaring the sun.

We believe students need to be ready for a changing world and to do this we offer a broad spectrum of educational content. From traditional M膩ori Studies to contemporary issues we show how to be agile and adapt in the changing cultural contexts of our fast paced modern world. Aotahi also encourages you to continue your te reo journey at any stage of learning. Our language and performing arts papers are open to anyone wanting to grow their tikanga and familiarise themselves with M膩ori culture.

Aotahi will connect you with a dynamic staff at the forefront of M膩ori and Indigenous Studies research. Our lecturers are routinely nominated for teaching awards and their research has been presented at conferences around the globe. Other M膩ori services include mentoring, tutorial sessions and specially provided study environments like Te Whare 膧konga o Te Akatoki.

Our te reo M膩ori programme is designed for both those just starting their journey with te reo M膩ori and people with existing reo M膩ori. We have a number of first-year papers so that your study of te reo M膩ori听can start at the right place for your existing language knowledge. For advanced speakers of te reo M膩ori, it is possible to have your prior knowledge recognised.

Congratulations on gaining your BA, and welcome to the graduate programme at Aotahi: School of M膩ori and Indigenous Studies.

Flexible course choices

If you do not want to take four papers in one year, or have subject interests in other disciplines, you may take one or two papers in another school, provided your programme is approved by the Head of School.

'Special Topics' are unnamed courses which are organised if there are groups of students wishing to pursue an area of study not covered in the existing graduate courses.

Each paper in society or language will be taught in one two-hour class per week at times to be arranged; modern language papers may require more contact time. Contact the school to find out when.

Entry criteria

The basic entry criteria to postgraduate study is that you have a Bachelor's degree with a major in听Te Reo M膩ori with at least a B+ average in 60 points at 300-level. Other entry criteria apply for those entering with different qualifications. Contact the School for more information.

You have several options of study at postgraduate level. The BA(Hons) can lead into a Master of Arts if you wish. Or you can study for a Master of Te Reo M膩ori.

Course details

The BA(Hons) is a one-year full-time degree, but you can also study part-time. You need to pass a total of four courses.

After competing your Honours degree you can continue your study at Masters level.

Masters study

Master of Arts: The MA consists of two parts. Part one is the completion of an honours year (see above). Part two is a thesis which is the equivalent of 1-2 years full time study: You can enrol full-time (MAOR690 or TREO690) or part-time (MAOR691 or TREO691). You will undertake a piece of original research under the supervison of two staff members, at least one from Aotahi.

Master of Te Reo M膩ori: The MTreo is similar to the Master of Arts except that the original research component is smaller and you study one or two more papers at honours level to make up for this.

Doctor of Philosophy

After completing a Masters degree you are eligible to enrol for a PhD. This is three years full time study (or longer part time), undertaking a piece of original research under supervison of two staff members, at least one from Aotahi.

Facilities

Graduate students will have study and computer space in the school and will have after-hours access to this. Local phone and email facilities will be available and there will be access to a photocopier.

Graduate students will be encouraged to take part in the life of the school, and especially to attend school seminars whenever possible.

Celebrating success

We believe that the success of our students should be celebrated. Scholarships and various awards are available each year and Aotahi recognises many recipients with its own awards ceremony. Most of all, Aotahi wants to instil confidence in students by backing them to do amazing things. After all, it is that idea of challenging the norm with the goal of making positive changes which stands at the root of M膩ui-Tikitiki-a-Taranga and Aotahi.

Come to Aotahi where we offer a window into the fast moving world of Te Ao M膩ori. Our purpose is to serve our students and to provide a journey which not only teaches but inspires, encourages and grows the next generation to be all that they can be.
