We are unique in the tertiary sector of New Zealand, delivering programmes that are distinctive in many ways. We are the only wānanga that offers programmes from foundation through to PhD. They are designed to support and promote academic excellence, and are benchmarked against those of other institutions. They are portable and transferable nationally and internationally.
