THE UNIVERSITY AND ITS VISION The University of Waikato celebrated its first 50 years in 2014. During its first half century it has grown steadily to become one of New Zealand’s major research organisations, playing a key role in the economy and making a significant contribution to the international innovation system. Today there are more than 12,000 students who choose to study at our campuses in Hamilton and Tauranga, and online. International students from 70 countries make up approximately 20% of the student population. The University offers a broad range of qualifications and flexibility in the composition of its degrees. We encourage our students to complete work placements or practicums during their study so they graduate as competent all-rounders ready for careers in the global marketplace. In January 2015, Times Higher Education ranked the University of Waikato 61st out of 100 “most international” universities in the world. Our Hamilton campus is impressive, located on 65 hectares of park-like grounds. Our location, origins and partnerships with Māori mean we hold a special place in our region, which is fundamental to our identity as we operate as a key driver of social well-being and economic growth. The University of Waikato strategy is to provide a future-focused curriculum and offer a world-class student experience that is excellent and distinctive, enhanced by ongoing investment in technology and campus development.

UNIVERSITY OF WAIKATO RESEARCH INSTITUTES AND CENTRES The University of Waikato makes a significant contribution to New Zealand research and innovation and is ranked highly by independent assessment for the quality of its research. We have identified areas of cross-disciplinary research strengths, demonstrated in the research institutes and centres that operate on campus. The research carried out by academics and postgraduate students in these centres influences policy in a number of areas. WILF MALCOLM INSTITUTE OF EDUCATIONAL RESEARCH (WMIER) WMIER takes a leading role in New Zealand research spanning the early childhood and school years, focusing on learning, teaching, curriculum, cultural and literacy issues, and policy. NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF DEMOGRAPHIC AND ECONOMIC ANALYSIS (NIDEA) University demographers and economists work with public policy experts at Wellington-based Motu Economic and Public Policy Research Trust to provide policymakers with a better understanding of the issues surrounding an ageing and increasingly diverse population. INSTITUTE FOR BUSINESS RESEARCH (IBR) Based in Waikato Management School, IBR has research expertise in areas ranging from innovation to economic impact analysis. IBR staff work with industry, government agencies and other organisations to enhance productivity and contribute to sustainable business. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH INSTITUTE (ERI) ERI encompasses the University’s internationally-recognised expertise in ecosystems in coastal and freshwater systems, urban and rural terrestrial systems, and in Antarctica, where we have led New Zealand in terrestrial biological research for more than 25 years. TE KOTAHI RESEARCH INSTITUTE (TKRI) TKRI provides research, consultancy and capacity building services relative to Māori economic development and well-being. Researchers collaborate with iwi, other research institutes and organisations to undertake projects from a kaupapa Māori approach. Researchers also engage with indigenous academics, researchers and communities outside New Zealand. THE INSTITUTE OF PROFESSIONAL LEARNING (IPL) IPL in the Faculty of Education provides high quality, researchinformed programmes of professional learning and development that contribute to improved professional practice in early childhood centres, kura, schools and tertiary institutions in New Zealand and overseas. IPL is also a member of the Te Toi Tupu consortium which offers professional development focused on improving outcomes for Māori and Pacific students and students with special education needs.
