Highlights
The University of Waikato dates back to 1960 when the Hamilton Teachers College was established and the university itself was founded in 1964. It merged with the Teachers College in 1990. The university's main campus is in Hamilton with an additional campus in Tauranga. There are currently just over 13,000 students including more than 1,700 international students from around the world.
The University of Waikato's academic departments are grouped into divisions, faculties and schools and it has over 100 lecture and seminar rooms. The Student Centre provides academic advice and career guidance.
The Gallagher Academy of Performing Arts is a state-of-the-art facility that hosts various cultural and artistic events. The University of Waikato is committed to creating an enriching environment to ensure students have access to the resources and opportunities necessary for a well-rounded academic experience.
The University of Waikato provides various accommodation options for our students studying at the Tauranga and Hamilton campuses. The university also helps international students find reputable landlords when they prefer private flats and renting.
The Hamilton campus offers three halls of residence: Bryant Hall, College Hall and Student Village. Each comes with standard facilities such as a shared kitchen and bathroom, laundry, and WiFi. The residence halls are close to university facilities, creating a close-knit campus environment. Tauranga campus offers brand new, self-catered university accommodation in the city's focal point with similar amenities.
International students often opt for a homestay arrangement, whereby they live with a local trusted family and integrate within the community as they improve their use of the English language.
The campus also features world-class sporting facilities, including a gymnasium, sports fields, and recreational spaces.
The Library: Te Whare Pukapuka, contains large volumes of print and digital resources, bookable study spaces and educational support to enhance student learning.
The Hamilton campus is situated in a multicultural area celebrated for its diversity. The Tauranga campus is close to the golden beaches of Mount Maunganui-Papamoa. A range of Health and wellbeing services are proudly offered to students, from the student health centre to the chaplaincy service for those who practice religion. UniRec is the name of the gym on campus that offers exercise classes for the athletically inclined. Active students can pursue sporting activities, including basketball, football, cricket, hockey and others.
Campuses
Hamilton is a vibrant student city but also one that comes with much lower living costs than many other cities in New Zealand. This means cheaper rent, food and public transportation costs.
