Reviews

I have studied at Unitec Institute of Technology back in 2015-2016. I have completed my level 4 Certificate in Communication and Media Arts. I loved the staff. The international students office is very helpful and the experience as an international student was amazing. Specially when you are coming from different countries and background. The University is very considerate of your circumstances and is very tolerant of the cultural diversity. They make you feel at home. I felt I have found a home at the Mt. Albert campus. I still to this date misses the the warmth of my lovely lecturers specially Antoinette Wessels was the best teacher one can ask for. She was always willing to help us understand the topics with ease. I took two of my classes with her one was Writing well and the other one was Communicating now. If you are going to join Unitec Institute of Technology then remember you are in good hands the teachers are just exceptional. Especially the Business and Communication department.

Hi this is Hossen from Bangladesh want to do masters (Level-8) uni tech in the subject of SAP (System Application Process) could you please let me know the details like tuition fees, course details, time and conditions .

Md. Imam Hossen

Had a great experience studying nursing at Unitec. Equally as good an experience working in Wellness clinic. Modern and older buildings work seamlessly together to provide all needs required for a world class learning facility. Always recommended.

Chris Stanley

Best place to get your national certificate for plumbing, drainlaying, and gasfitting. The tutors are all very well prepared with their lesson plans and theory assessments but they also realize that their students are tradespeople and not necessarily academics, so they keep a good balance of practical, theory, and inappropriate workplace banter. The only place I'll recommend to anyone looking to do an apprenticeship.
