About Auckland University of Technology
Auckland University of Technology is a university in New Zealand, formed on January 1, 2000, when a former technical college was granted university status.
Auckland University of Technology (AUT) is spread over three campuses in Auckland, New Zealand, offering more than 250 courses in subjects ranging from art and design to languages. It prides itself as the number one millennial university and is ranked in the top 50 universities under 50 years of age.
Auckland itself, meanwhile, was ranked 28th in the QS Best Student Cities ranking, receiving high marks on factors such as quality of life and having a large student community.
Students can get career advice from the University’s Employability Lab, which offers help writing a CV and cover letter, improving interview techniques, and networking with employers for work experience.
The University offers a wide range of support services to help students’ lives be as relaxed as possible during their study time. These include a disability support service, international student support, a confidential counseling service, and spiritual and religious support for students of all faiths.
A wide range of clubs and societies are offered for AUT students to get involved in during their free time. These range from clubs to specific sports by theme. As New Zealand’s leading sports university, students also have access to state-of-the-art fitness facilities, including sports centers, and the opportunity to work with a personal trainer.
During their study time, students have the opportunity to spend part of their time in another country through an international exchange program, at one of AUT’s partner institutions. Students are encouraged to do so to stand out from the crowd after graduation, as well as gain new life and cultural experiences.
