Abstract: Real property law is one of the key elements in any property-based degree program. The question arises as to what the study of 'property law' entails and what the composition of a 'property law' course should be. Replicating the methodology used by Placid and Weeks (2009) in their examination of the composition of real estate law courses in the United States, this paper examines the current composition and pedagogical approach adopted by Australian universities based on the study of undergraduate property programs. In particular the curriculum, teaching resources used, assessment and engagement strategies are considered with a view to making improvements to the way these property law courses can be more effectively tailored to property students.
