• Late Year term: early December–early March

• Summer School: early January–late February

Some degree programmes have both Semester 1 and Semester 2 intakes (see pages 16–17).

Degree structure

Points and courses A degree programme usually consists of 120 points of full-time study per academic year. A three-year degree involves 360 points, a four-year degree 480 points, etc.

Most full-time students study eight papers of 10–30 points each per academic year. Generally, students taking courses with higher points values per paper study fewer papers overall.

Majors, minors and specialisations Choose a specialisation, a single or double major, or a major and a minor. This is the focus of a large proportion of a degree programme as the subject is taken to the most advanced undergraduate stage.

A degree from the University of Auckland is an excellent foundation for your future career in New Zealand, or elsewhere in the world.

University of Auckland degrees are uniqueA unique feature of University of Auckland degree programmes is the General Education component. Students select one or two courses from a wide variety of subjects beyond their usual field of study, to contribute towards a well-rounded education.

This gives students a greater understanding of New Zealand and its place in the world, as well as the opportunity to mix with other students and benefit from cross-disciplinary research opportunities.

Student stories

"Because of the differences in the school systems of New Zealand and Bahrain I needed to do a Foundation Studies course to ensure I was prepared to pursue my tertiary education in this country," says Bahraini student Mohamed Alansari.

I completed a Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics and Education, followed by an honours degree in Education (first-class), a Master of Arts in Education (also with first-class honours), and I've now completed a PhD specialisation in the social psychology of education.

I am a research fellow at the Faculty of Education and Social Work at the University of Auckland. As part of my role I give lectures on educational and social psychology, research methods and improving outcomes for university students.

I'm a big dreamer. I see myself in the future taking on a challenging leadership role that allows me to have a greater impact on how we teach students and cater to their needs at all educational levels."

How dreams are realised

Xinpei (Harriet) Zhou came to New Zealand from China when she was 17.

"I decided to do the University of Auckland Certificate in Foundation Studies because it provided English study together with subjects I had never learned at school in China like Accounting and Economics. It made me better prepared for the University of Auckland where I did a Bachelor of Commerce with a double major in Marketing and International Business.

The teachers at UP Education were very friendly and one of them ignited my passion for business studies. The course is good because it gives students the opportunity to try different subjects and adapt to New Zealand culture."

Now a successful marketing professional, Harriet runs her own company specialising in helping New Zealand and Australian brands excel in China. In 2016, she received the Valuable Contribution award from the New Zealand Chinese Association for her work promoting Chinese culture in Nelson, New Zealand.
