Te Whare Wananga O Awanuiarangi

Te Whare Wananga o Awanuiarangi delivers programmes that are distinctive in many ways.
We are unique in the tertiary sector of New Zealand, as we are the only wananga that delivers programmes from foundation through to PhD. This accent on higher qualifications is captured in the title by the use of the term Whare to describe this institution as a higher house of learning similar to the ancient Whare Wananga academies.
Our programmes are designed to support and promote academic excellence, and are benchmarked against those of other institutions. They are portable and transferable nationally and internationally. Therefore, it is important that we explore and integrate the world view of Maori and other indigenous peoples, and engage in and critique the world views of others.
