Unitec operates under the aegis of Te Pūkenga, New Zealand’s national network of polytechnics, industry training organisations and institutes of technology. Unitec offers a wide range of work-oriented programmes and short courses that are employment-focused and taught at its two campuses in Mt. Albert and Waitākere. Both of the institute’s campuses constantly buzz with students of all ages, nationalities and backgrounds. There is always something going on at both campuses – from social events on campus to action-packed trips out of Auckland with the Experience NZ programme. There are also a wide range of services and facilities available, from shops to Te Noho Kotahitanga Marae. Both campuses also offer a range of support services, online resources, events and activities that students can access to help make the most of their time with Unitec.

Fun environment!
Unitec is a fun place to study! The lecturers in this field are not very good so most classes have same information taught over and over in different ways in each class. Classes are long. One class will take up five hours of the day! Unitec took three months to complete my application so gave one star. read full review

One class will take up five hours of the day! Unitec took three months to complete my application so gave one star. But because unitec is low ranking, easy to get high grades. I got a job straight away because loads of work in this field. Very stressful job though working with difficult issues so probably won't last long. Thanks. show less
