I chose Massey University over other universities because of the variety of specialised papers offered, block courses where you can still have in-person contact as well as remote study, the ability to choose from three different campuses, and the faculty of highly qualified academic lecturers.

What has hugely stood out is how extremely friendly and approachable all the staff here are.

Massey is one of the best universities in New Zealand. I could not have missed the opportunity to gain professional education from such a well-established, well-renowned university that was in close proximity to me. Also, Massey has some of the best tutors, professors and academia that form a complete educational package that a student can ever dream of.

I think the job opportunities for nurse practitioners in New Zealand are going to increase as we meet the challenges facing our health system. Nurse practitioners will improve the health outcomes for consumers by complementing the role of other health care providers.

“The Master of Nursing played a crucial part in influencing what I have done so far in my career. The lecturers were supportive and challenged me to think critically and to express my ideas. As a Māori student I was well supported by Massey through Te Rau Puawai – a programme established by Sir Mason Durie."
