This programme offers an exciting and flexible entry or re-entry into post graduate studies. The Postgraduate Certificate in Mātauranga Māori and Indigenous studies allows tauira to explore postgraduate studies without committing to a full master’s programme. Tauira complete two papers to achieve a Postgraduate Certificate 

 

We offer three options to focus your postgraduate studies. 

 

Option One: The Postgraduate Certificate in Mātauranga Māori and Indigenous Studies offers an endorsement in Reo Rangatira. The Reo Rangatira endorsement is given to tauira who complete any two of the following three core papers: 

PGMMI804 – Te Reo o Ngā Tohunga 

PGMMI805 – Te Reo o te Mōteatea 

PGMMI806 – Te Whakarauora 

 

Option Two: The Postgraduate Certificate in Mātauranga Māori and Indigenous Studies also offers a Māori Development focus (non-endorsed). Tauira would need to complete any two of the following three core papers: 

PGMMI811 – Advanced Māori/Indigenous Economic Development 

PGMMI803 – Contemporary Māori/Indigenous Policy Development 

PGMMI816 – Kaitiakitanga 

 

Option Three: The Postgraduate Certificate in Mātauranga Māori and Indigenous Studies also offers a general non-endorsed option. In this option tauira can select and complete any 2 papers that are offered at level 8 (see masters paper offerings), and/or any papers from the above endorsement areas. For those wishing to proceed to complete their master's by thesis or dissertation, one of those papers should be PGMMI828, or PGMMI829. 

From time to time a paper may be offered part-time across two semesters. See annual semester offerings.
