Undergraduate study in Pacific Studies

Pacific Studies develops your knowledge and awareness of Pacific cultures, identities and experiences. You can explore Pacific histories, health and wellbeing, social anthropology, languages (Samoan, Cook Islands Reo, Tongan), Indigenous epistemologies, dance, performance, material culture and film.
