Auckland is a major city in the north of New Zealand’s North Island, centred on two large harbours. The iconic Sky Tower in the centre offers views of Viaduct Harbour, which is lined with bars and cafes and is full of superyachts. The formal Wintergardens are located in Auckland Domain, the city’s oldest park, which is built around an extinct volcano. Mission Bay Beach, near Downtown, has a seaside promenade. In the 2019 Best Student Cities survey, London-based Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) ranked Auckland 27th in the world. It considers education quality, student mix, and living standards. New Zealand has a lot to offer, including an excellent education system, internationally recognized qualifications, numerous research opportunities, and an unrivaled quality of life. You can be assured of a welcoming and friendly society with an excellent support system for international students while studying here. You may be permitted to work up to 20 hours per week part-time and full-time during all scheduled holidays and the Christmas and New Year holiday periods.
