Future Māori and Pacific Students

Why study business at the Business School, entry requirements and study options, and help and support.

Our story

Our Māori and Pacific students share their stories of how studying Business impacts on their whānau and community – and their future!

Why study business?

Our Māori and Pacific students, staff and alumni talk about why a career in business relates to many aspects of their lives.
