The MA provides diverse opportunities to suit your needs. You can select between research-based or taught programs, with durations of either one year or 18 months based on your prior qualifications, across over 40 academic disciplines. Your previous studies might allow you to explore a field distinct from your earlier focus. A research master's lets you make meaningful contributions to your discipline by undertaking a significant research initiative guided by New Zealand's top academics. For taught programs, you'll enhance your expertise through intimate class settings, direct engagement with faculty, and a modest research component. Earning an MA equips you with advanced knowledge and versatile skills. Alumni have applied their refined abilities in analysis, communication, and cultural understanding to professions in public service, global development, cultural institutions, and research sectors.
Our academic pursuits cover extensive psychological domains, including evolutionary studies, brain research, sensory perception, relationship dynamics, and mental wellness strategies.
