Why study in New Zealand
  • The broad range of study and research opportunities

The eight institutions that make up the New Zealand university system are located in cities across the country’s two main islands, the North and the South. This distribution gives students the chance to pursue a wide range of opportunities in the study, work, recreation and culture.

The proximity of all eight universities to New Zealand’s diverse natural environment offers students the chance to research anything from endangered marine mammals to earthquake engineering. Although all the universities offer core degrees in the arts, business and science, each also has its own distinctive profile.

For example, Auckland and Otago have the country’s two medical schools, featuring hospital-based learning, whereas Canterbury and Auckland have an international profile for their engineering courses.

  • A high-quality learning experience

The New Zealand university system is research-based, as it is historically based on the British higher education model. This means there are a number of similarities between the 2 systems, such as the names of qualifications, teaching methods, and the look and feel of the university campuses. All academic staff are expected to be active researchers as well as teachers. This insistence on research-informed teaching ensures a high-quality learning experience.

The universities representative body, the New Zealand Vice-Chancellors Committee, has legal responsibility for university course approval and moderation procedures.
The New Zealand Universities Academic Audit Unit supports this quality assurance method. These systems certify that university education in New Zealand is of a consistently excellent standard.
