Waipapa Taumata Rau | University of Auckland is New Zealand’s largest and leading university. We celebrate our location in the beautiful harbour city of Auckland | Tamaki Makaurau, our unique position in Aotearoa New Zealand and our place within the Pacific. Our te reo Māori name was gifted by Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei, the Indigenous peoples of the Auckland area, and symbolises that this is a place where diverse world views are shared and lifelong journeys of inquiry, learning and service begin. Since its founding in 1883, the University of Auckland has grown to become New Zealand's flagship, research-led university, known for the excellence of its teaching, its research, and its service to local, national and international communities.

Founded in 1869, the University of Otago is New Zealand’s oldest and finest university. Most teaching takes place on the Dunedin campus and the majority of the University’s 20,000 students have come from outside the Dunedin area to enjoy the unique lifestyle in New Zealand’s only true student city. Research excellence underpins academic activity at Otago and a strong research culture is fostered across all four divisions – Business, Health Sciences, Humanities and Sciences. This was highlighted by Otago’s success under the New Zealand Government’s 2012 Performance-Based Research Funding (PBRF) quality evaluation, which confirmed Otago's position as the leading research institution in New Zealand. Otago is at the forefront of modern scholarship and has a long-established tradition of innovation. It is for this reason Otago is able to attract first-rate academics, and our graduates are renowned for their independence and audacity of spirit. We encourage open discussion and debate. However, any derogatory, racist, or offensive comments are not tolerated on University of Otago posts and will be removed.
