Master of Business Analytics - Batch of 2025

Offered by University of Auckland

4.4

The availability of part time on-campus is very low and the university is very competitive.

Tips: Students should be aware of cultural differences and have essential life skills like cooking. They also need to be able to manage a 16-hour day with academics, part-time work, and personal obligations. Unfortunately, I did not receive a scholarship because they are very limited and competitive. The people here are generally nice, and there are always security guards and police officers around to keep everyone safe. If you are thinking about moving here, I would say that you should consider it. The city has a lot to offer, and I think you will be happy with your decision. I am very satisfied with my course, university, and the country.

Dislikes (Part time work): The availability of part-time work on campus is very low, and given the number of students at the university, it's very competitive. Off-campus opportunities are better, and you can usually find a job within a month if you keep applying. The course schedule is a bit hectic, but it's manageable if you have a background in analytics. The average payout is quite good.

Master of Communication - Batch of 2025

The college is worth investing in.

Tips: My transition in this country was generally good, but sometimes I encounter difficulties sending money. There is a bit of a cultural shift, but not much. I was awarded a scholarship, but it was not at my university, which makes things difficult. The total cost of living allowances is 250 dollars per week in New Zealand dollars. Overall, I am satisfied with my experience.

Likes (Student Life): The University of Auckland has a lot to offer students. The campus has a wide variety of facilities, including sports facilities, common rooms for eating and sleeping, and computer rooms. The library is housed in a separate building, and the campus is located within a 3km radius of the city centre.

Dislikes (Internships): There are not many internships available, and the available ones are difficult to get. To cover the cost of living, students should apply for scholarships. Another benefit of getting a scholarship is that you can get university housing at half price, and if you live in university housing, your recreation is free.

Bachelor of Commerce - Batch of 2026

Offered by University of Auckland

2.9

A simple university with a diverse range of students and different faculties.

Tips: There wasn't a cultural shift for me. However, some things that are native to New Zealand can be a bit of a shift. The university is a little boring, and the country doesn't have many things to do. On the other hand, the people are very friendly, and it's easy to make friends. The lifestyle is very relaxed.

Likes (Quality of faculty): The University of Auckland has a great building and a nice space to work. The faculty members are very diverse. The teaching includes labs, tutorials, and lectures. Most classes have three lectures per week, an hour or two hours long. Commerce labs are one hour long, and science labs are three hours of practical work. Tutorials are one hour long and are held biweekly.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): I'm not sure what the job market was like before the recession, but it's difficult to get an internship these days. Retail stores usually hire people if they have working visas, and sometimes companies offer internships that lead to graduate jobs at "Big 4" companies.

Master of Business Administration - Batch of 2025

Offered by University of Auckland

3.7

The city is expensive and it is difficult to find part time job.

Tips: This college is nice, and most of the faculty are really nice. However, some teachers have a very memory-based teaching method, which makes it difficult to learn the concepts that are being taught. Also, Auckland is very expensive, especially rent, so students should do their research on the country and the college before deciding to study here. Finding a job is very difficult, both part-time and full-time, so students should consider all their options, including studying in Australia.

Likes (Indian Food): Auckland has a large Indian community, and as a result, there are a lot of Indian restaurants and grocery stores in the city. Indian restaurants cost about 30-40 dollars per meal. The restaurants are expensive, but if you buy groceries at Indian stores and cook at home, you can save a lot of money. The grocery stores also have a wide variety of Indian ingredients that you can use to cook your own meals.

Dislikes (Part time work): The job market in Auckland is very tough as the country is deep in recession, and there are no part-time jobs. Students might find some casual jobs, but those are one-offs, and the students cannot rely on them. Barely any student in my Cohort has a job yet. It has been around more than 5 months and everyone is just relying on the money from parents. Living costs are through the roof so surviving here as a student is stressful and tough.

Master of Engineering Project Management - Batch of 2024

Offered by University of Auckland

Lively and cordial university in all multidimensional aspects.

Tips: Students should know that there is a huge cultural shift but it's a good one we can adapt easily. I didn't avail of any scholarships because I applied very late for the university but you can check for scholarships on the university website as it is mentioned. Try to opt for part-time opportunities as it helps to cut off on expenses. I'm very much satisfied and content with my experiences at the university.
