Universities There are eight government-funded universities providing undergraduate
and postgraduate degree programmes. Some also offer foundation programmes.
Whilst all offer a broad range of degree subjects, each university has its own
specialised courses.
The
quality of a New Zealand university education is well recognised
internationally. Many New Zealand graduates have gone on to achieve
international recognition in their field. Many of the international students
from developing Asian nations, who have studies at New Zealand universities,
have since served as senior administrators, including cabinet ministers in their
own countries.
