Otago Polytechnic

Otago Polytechnic is proud to be a leader in hands-on, career-focused education, achieving some of the best student achievement and satisfaction results in Australasia, and earning resounding endorsements from employers.

We have approximately 7,000 students in campuses in Dunedin, Central Otago, and Auckland.
Employers love our graduates for their knowledge, independence and creativity, and we are proud of our teaching excellence: in the past seven years, 18 of our teachers have won National Tertiary Teaching Excellence Awards.

Otago Polytechnic is committed to sustainability: we have made a pledge to our community and students to "do the right thing", and are working towards a sustainable future for ourselves and future generations.

International study abroad and exchange opportunities enable our students – and those from our partner institutions – to broaden their experiences and gain global understandings.
