Under Graduate Degree,Diploma Semester module NQF level: 5 Credits: 12
Module presented in English
Purpose: The main purpose of this module is to introduce students to the concept of law, the function of law and importance of skills. An overriding aspect with regard to the objective and approach of the module is to help students to develop important skills that we believe are crucial when they interact with the law from student point of view. We are mindful of the fact that this will also help them fit in easily in the world of practice, especially as candidate legal practitioners or simply a new entrant to the profession. The module is motivated by the realisation that the main purpose for studying law is not merely to absorb information, and know the rules and procedures involved. Students accredited with this module students should be able to apply law in a practical situation when required.
