Research options
There are several ways to conduct research for your postgraduate degree at Auckland.
Student research is normally conducted under a supervised project and is credited to a formal qualification. The LLM and PhD are both research only based qualifications, whilst the MLS can have a large research component in addition to taught courses. The PGCertLaw can only be completed via taught courses.
