Massey University’s Tiriti-led strategy has sparked a new focus on supporting tauira Māori achievement. This includes Te Rau Tauawhi, the Māori Student Centre, with a team dedicated to helping tauira navigate university life and succeed.
Te Pūtahi-a-Toi, the School of Māori Knowledge, is the cultural heart of the Manawatū campus, while the Pukeahu Marae development project will provide an exciting cultural and learning space at the Wellington campus.
Tauira Māori are also supported by Māori Student Associations on each campus and Māori student advisers are available to help with enrolment and career advice.
