New Zealand: University of Auckland - Main Page

Step off on your own New Zealand adventure!

New Zealand is famous for its beautiful coastlines, jagged mountain ranges, friendly people, and unique heritage influenced by the native Maori culture. It is located in the South Pacific about 1,400 miles east of Australia and consists of a few main islands plus several smaller surrounding islands. The population is just about 4 million people and contains a vibrant mix of European, Maori, Polynesian and Asian cultures.

Study in New Zealand's largest city, Auckland, and discover this unique country! As part of the AU Abroad Partner Program, American University students can directly enroll at the University of Auckland for a semester or year and earn full AU credit towards their degree. The University of Auckland is a prestigious center of academic excellence and one of New Zealand's largest and most important research institutions. Its accreditation by the AACSB International - The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business - allows students from AU's KOGOD School of Business gain credit for their business degree.

Its location in Auckland, combined with a diverse student body of about 28,000, provides an invigorating campus environment where academic skills flourish. The main campus is just a ten minute walk from the Auckland city center and main harbor.
