Our Academic Partners

NZSE College partners with leading universities — AUT and Massey University — to give students the opportunity to cross-credit their studies and progress seamlessly toward their chosen pathway.

AUCKLAND UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY

NZSE College’s first university pathway was established over 15 years ago with AUT to expand access to higher education for aspiring IT professionals. Since that initial agreement, the partnership has evolved to encompass a wider range of NZSE’s technology, business, and tertiary pathway programmes — creating clear and trusted progression routes for NZSE graduates into AUT’s bachelor and master degrees.

MASSEY UNIVERSITY OF NEW ZEALAND

Celebrating more than 11 years of academic collaboration, NZSE College and Massey University have long partnered to create pathways for students from NZSE’s programmes into Massey degrees. In 2025, the partnership reached an exciting new milestone with an agreement to deliver the Massey University Diploma in Business Studies at NZSE’s Auckland City campus — enabling students to benefit from the combined expertise of both institutions.
