New Zealand Education System

Tertiary education

New Zealand has a range of different government-funded options for tertiary study universities, polytechnics, institutes of technology and colleges of education. There are also several thousand private training establishments (PTEs) offering a wide range of courses.

Universities

New Zealand has eight universities. All offer general undergraduate and graduate degrees and diplomas in arts, sciences and commerce, as well as specialist degrees in particular disciplines. Undergraduate degrees such as a BA (Bachelor of Arts) or a BSc (Bachelor of Science) take three to four years to complete. Vocational or professional training may take longer.
Each university publishes an annual Calendar detailing the courses scheduled during the academic year. These are held in the reference sections of most public libraries and can also be purchased from leading booksellers and university bookshops. Term dates vary between universities. University Calendars also specify fees and entry requirements.
