Māori Student Services

Welcome from Professor Sir Mason Durie

Neke neke mai ki Ruahine maunga
Ki te taumata ko Te Ahu a Turanga
Nāna e rere tonu ana te awa o Manawatū
Ki te Marae-ō-Hine
Ki Rangiotū, Puketōtara e.

E ngā reo, e ngā mana, e ngā karangatanga maha
Nau mai, piki mai, haere mai.

Tēnā koutou.

It is a pleasure to be able to welcome you to Massey University. No matter what programme you are enrolled in, the completion of a certificate, diploma or degree will provide a basis for a career and for contributing in one way or another to Māori development. We hope that you will be successful and that you will achieve satisfaction from academic endeavours. Your time at Massey will also enable you to become involved with a range of social, cultural and sporting activities - balance is an important part of university life.

This website provides information that will ease your entry into Massey University. It contains details about mentoring programmes, learning support, campus facilities, student organisations, scholarships and forthcoming events. It has been prepared by the University's support staff including Kaitautoko Māori who will be pleased to meet you, discuss your study programme and answer any other questions that may be important to a successful outcome.

Best wishes for a fruitful year.
Kia māia,
Professor Sir Mason Durie
Deputy Vice-Chancellor and
Assistant Vice-Chancellor (Māori and Pasifika)
