University of Auckland
New Zealand’s largest and highest ranked university per the QS World Rankings, University of Auckland grew out of its 1883 college of 95 students and four professors. Today, it nurtures, inspires, and transforms 10,000+ students each year from across New Zealand, Asia-Pacific, and the world.
University of Auckland was the birthplace of programming language R, popular with statisticians and data scientists, and enjoyed economy research and lectures led by Phillips-curve founder William Phillips, the influential economist.
Its learning approach centers on creating a vibrant atmosphere in both on- and offline lectures and classes, encouraging active participation and lively discussion that drives students towards success and deepens respect for the essence of what makes people different.
