The MA provides diverse options to suit your needs. You can select between research-based or taught programs, with durations of one year or 18 months based on your qualifications, across over 40 academic disciplines. Your prior education might allow you to explore a field distinct from your previous specialization. A research master's lets you make meaningful contributions to your chosen discipline through an extensive research endeavor guided by New Zealand's top academics. Alternatively, a taught master's offers intensive learning in intimate classroom settings, direct engagement with faculty, and a modest research component. Earning an MA enhances both your specialized expertise and versatile abilities to an advanced degree. Alumni have applied their refined skills in analysis, problem-solving, communication, and cross-cultural understanding to professions in public service, global development, cultural institutions, and research sectors.
