Dean’s Overview
D uring the academic year 2022–2023, the Faculty sought to further enrich the students’ learning experience, provided continuing legal education and support for the legal profession and otherwise positively impacted the wider society through numerous outreach and other initiatives.
ACCESS
TEACHING AND LEARNING The Faculty has continued to identify and implement strategies aimed at improving the students’ experience. Related activities have included: the 5 th Annual Faculty Awards Ceremony for the recognition of outstanding students in academia and co-curricular activities which was held in person on 14 November 2022, after being held virtually for two (2) years due to the COVID-19 Pandemic. Then, fifty-six (56) students were specially recognised based on their performance in the 2022–23 academic year. In addition, One hundred and fourteen (114) trophies were issued in the categories of Subject Awards, Year/Level Awards, Top LLB and LLM Student Awards and Dean’s List Awards. On 30 March 2023, the Faculty hosted its Fourth Annual Career Forum 4.0, with the aim of increasing students’ awareness about various career paths available after completing the LLB degree. This took the form of a panel discussion with persons from various professions. Some of the career options presented required the Legal Education Certificate (LEC) and others do not. The graduate arm of the Faculty continued to promote special admission to the LLM programme. This initiative has capitalized on the market demand of practi- tioners for one or two specialized courses. A bonus of this initiative is that some students transitioned from the Special Admission programme to full enrollment in the LLM programme.
