Overview
The Faculty of Law accepted its first students in 2008, and attributes the significant results achieved to date, both nationally and regionally, on a strong underlying work ethic, an outcomes focused approach and on the design skills and the project orientated principles incorporated into its courses and taught by its experienced academics. In line with the aims of the university, the faculty looks to nurture the next generation of intellectuals, to follow science as its guide, to defend what is known to be true, as well as to share knowledge, experience and democratic values.
