Description
AustraLearn is the North American representative for 29 major universities in Australia and New Zealand. In Dunedin, the University of Otago offers students excellent degree options in almost any field of study.
AustraLearn assists students with finding the right university and program, provides applications and prospectuses for the universities, and provides a wide range of services to make sure students actually get there. These services include assistance with enrollment details, the student visa, financial aid, accommodation, airline tickets, and general country information.
Curriculum Overview
Otago has particular research strengths in the Health Sciences (Medicine, Dentistry, Pharmacy, Physiotherapy), Medical Sciences, Earth & Ocean Sciences, Biological & Environmental Sciences, and Computer & Information Sciences. The School of Business has links with many of the elite Business Schools around the world, and its MBA program was recently ranked by the Financial Times as the top program in New Zealand, and in the top three in Australasia. Otago also offers strong programs in Language, Literature & Performing Arts, Social Sciences (Geography, Anthropology), and Liberal Arts.
Student Life
The University takes its name from the province, Otago, of which Dunedin is its principal city. Dunedin (population 120,000) offers students the best of both worlds. It has all the facilities, entertainment and variety of larger cities, but is small enough to be friendly, intimate, and uncrowded. Dunedin is also an excellent gateway to Central Otago and Fiordland where opportunities abound for hiking, skiing, water sports, adventure tourism (including bungy-jumping), or admiring the spectacular landscapes.
