Position Details (PhD Program)

Tertiary study is a journey full of new twists and growing turns much like those made by our tupuna who navigated across a sea of islands. Aotahi encourages you to follow the t? k?uka lined pathway to M?ori and Indigenous Studies and Te Ao Maori at University of Canterbury.

Aotahi is determined to challenge the future of Te Ao Maori and Indigenous Studies and reflect the ever-changing state of Te Ao Maori across its courses and through the School. We offer two programmes of study at University of Canterbury: Te Ao Maori and Indigenous Studies, and Te Ao Maori.

Our values and vision

  • The values of Aotahi have been modelled on the traditions of M?ui-Tikitiki-a-Taranga – the Te Ao Maori demigod famous for obtaining the knowledge of fire and snaring the sun.

Curriculum:

  • Traditional Māori society
  • Mātauranga Māori
  • Māori philosophies
  • Treaty of Waitangi
  • Contemporary issues affecting Māori
  • Iwi and Māori development in the post-Settlement era
