Professor Sarah Todd Pro-Vice-Chancellor (International)

The University Of Otago Why study at Otago? • It has an international reputation for excellence

• International students are strongly supported

• Otago is New Zealand’s topranked university for research quality

• Otago offers an extensive range of undergraduate and postgraduate qualifications across the disciplines – Business, Health Sciences, Humanities and Sciences

• University of Otago graduates are highly regarded by employers • It offers an unrivalled campus experience and vibrant cultural life

• It has an extensive student exchange programme with over 90 partners in 32 countries • High quality pathway programmes are offered in the University of Otago Language Centre and Foundation Year.

The University of Otago is New Zealand’s top-ranked university for research quality.

The University of Otago is New Zealand’s first university, established in Dunedin by early Scottish settlers who had a strong belief in the value of education. This commitment continues today – education is Dunedin’s main “industry”, and Dunedin is New Zealand’s only true university city. Of Dunedin’s population of 122,000, more than 22,000 are University of Otago students, of whom over 2,800 are international students. These students come to Otago from all over the world to take advantage of the University’s worldwide reputation for excellence. Otago is at the forefront of modern scholarship and has a long-established tradition of innovation. It is for this reason Otago is able to attract first-rate academics, and our graduates are renowned for their independence and audacity of spirit, which makes them highly regarded by prospective employers.

A National Presence The University of Otago has a presence throughout New Zealand. Most undergraduate and postgraduate study takes place on the Dunedin campus, but the University is also represented in Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch and Invercargill. The Schools of Medicine and Health Sciences in Wellington and Christchurch are home to many leading medical researchers, and a large number of Health Sciences postgraduate courses are taught from these campuses.

Dunedin Campus The Dunedin campus is located just a few blocks from the centre of the city and on the edge of the Dunedin Botanic Garden. It is a beautiful campus – the Water of Leith winds its way past the iconic stone Clocktower, the stateof-the-art Centre for Innovation, the multiaward-winning Information Services Building and the many character villas that are home to

much of Otago’s student population. Students benefit from Dunedin’s relatively inexpensive cost of living, and house prices and rentals are affordable, particularly compared to New Zealand’s northern cities. It is a safe city in which to live and it is easy to get out and about to take advantage of everything it has to offer – and the ski fields of Central Otago are only a few hours’ drive away. More information about Dunedin can be found on page 54.

International Commitment Making the decision to study at a university overseas is a bold one, but provides a valuable opportunity to learn about other cultures, gain maturity and develop the global perspective which is becoming increasingly important for graduates today. The University of Otago recognises this and is strongly committed to international education. It has collaborative teaching, research and exchange agreements with major institutions around the world (see page 58) and, in addition to the many services and facilities available to all students (see page 49), its International Office provides a range of specialist services for international students. An orientation programme is run at the start of each semester, and international student advisers and student mentors are available to help students make the adjustment to life at Otago and to provide ongoing help and support. Otago offers a rich cultural life, reflecting a diverse international student community and New Zealand’s own multicultural population. It also has a network of some 83,000 graduates living in more than 130 countries and has established alumni branches in many of the world’s major cities including London, Sydney, Melbourne and Kuala Lumpur.

The University of Otago is a foundation member of the Matariki Network of Universities (MNU), a select international group of outstanding universities, with each member amongst the oldest and foremost places of learning in its respective country. The MNU has been established to enable the universities to enhance diversity, to share ideas and expertise, and to learn international best practice from each other, recognising the shared commitment to an ethos of excellence in research, scholarship and rounded education. Other members of MNU include Dartmouth College (USA), Durham University (England), Queen’s University (Canada), Ebergard Karls Universität Tübingen (Germany), The University of Western Australia and Uppsala Universitet (Sweden). www.matarikinetwork.com

Research Research underpins all academic activity at Otago and the University continues to build on its long-held reputation for research excellence. Otago has been ranked as New Zealand’s most research-intensive university by the Ministry of Research, Science and Technology and also as this country’s first university for research quality by the Government’s 2006 PerformanceBased Research Fund (PBRF) quality evaluation.

The PBRF ranked Otago first in more subject areas than any other institution. These included Biomedical Sciences, Clinical Medicine, Earth Sciences, Economics, Education, English Language and Literature, History and Classics, Law, Philosophy, Public Health, Religious Studies and Theology, and Sport and Exercise Science. The University of Otago also had more first- or second-ranked subject areas than any other institution and more than 50 per cent of Otago’s academic staff were identified as internationally or nationally distinguished.

Graduate Research Otago has the highest proportion of postgraduate research students of any university in New Zealand. Of the more than 4,000 postgraduate students currently enrolled, over 1,250 are doctoral candidates and over 750 are thesis Master’s candidates. The University provides a strong foundation for student research through scholarships (see page 12), as well as state-of-the-art library and computing facilities, and excellent supervision. Otago PhD candidates are supported by the University to travel to leading international conferences to present their research findings. All thesis students receive support and mentorship from their supervisors, and the Director and Manager of Graduate Research Services are both available for consultation by students should the need arise. The Director also chairs the Graduate Research Student Liaison Committee, a representative group of research masters’ and PhD candidates acting as a forum for student issues.

FIRST SEMESTER

Academic Year

Credit Transfer

The University academic year is divided into two semesters. The first semester runs from late February until the end of June; the second semester runs from early July until mid November. Postgraduate thesis-only students, however, can begin their studies at any time. A Summer School is also offered from early January to mid-February each year. This gives students the opportunity to study one or two papers for credit over a short teaching period and outside the standard semester timetable.

The University may grant credit/advanced standing for study undertaken at another tertiary institution. Courses completed should be comparable in content and standard to those offered at Otago.

Undergraduate Degrees New Zealand universities generally follow the British model of three-year undergraduate (bachelors’) degrees with an increasing level of specialisation and difficulty in each year. A degree almost always includes subjects other than the major or specialist subject, but the major subject is usually studied in every year of the degree.

Papers Papers are the building blocks of a degree and comprise a fixed course of work in particular aspects of a subject. Most take one semester to complete: however, some papers, particularly for Health Science degrees, run for the whole year. Introductory papers are at 100-level, increasing to 200-level and 300-level papers in subsequent semesters or years. 400-level papers are generally at the postgraduate level.

Points Each paper passed is worth points – mostly 18 points – which students accumulate to achieve a degree. A three-year degree is usually made up of 360 points, with a certain number required at 200- and 300-levels to meet the requirements of a student’s major subject.

Choosing a Subject Major It is not necessary to make this decision in the first year. A well-planned first year will allow flexibility of choice, but also cover any prerequisites there may be for the 200-level and 300-level papers later chosen. Some students may elect to take a double major, completing 300-level requirements in two subjects.

Prerequisites and Corequisites

Assessment Cardrona

Most papers beyond 100-level have prerequisites: specific papers that must be passed before enrolment in the new papers. Some papers also have corequisites. If the corequisite has not already been passed, it must be taken at the same time as the new paper.

Teaching Lectures are the main method of presenting information at undergraduate level. Students also take part in laboratories and tutorials, and are expected to back up new knowledge with reading.

Workload A full-time course is generally between 54 and 72 points in a semester, or between 108 and 144 points in a year. As an approximate guide, students can expect to spend about 12 hours per week per one single semester paper (18 points). In general, very able students take 144 points in a year, while most take 126.

Most papers have a two- or three-hour examination or “final” at the end of each semester (or at the end of the second semester for full-year papers) and many papers have shorter tests during the year. Written assignments, presentations and laboratory work also count towards the final grade. Continuous internal assessment is a feature of almost all Otago papers and assessment requirements will be made clear at the beginning of the semester.

Problems? Tutors and lecturers will discuss, within class or privately, any problems students may have understanding lectures or tutorials, completing assignments or preparing for examinations. The Student Learning Centre offers a number of services to help students improve study and learning skills.

Other Options In addition to three-year bachelors’ degrees, the Otago degree structure also includes: • Specialised degrees (including Medicine, Dentistry, Pharmacy, Physical Education, Physiotherapy and Law) which take more than three years to complete and have specific admission requirements • Double degree programmes which involve cross crediting (sharing) papers between the two qualifications.

Postgraduate Study Teaching and Assessment

Postgraduate Study Options

The number of lectures and amount of academic contact time will depend on the course. Postgraduate study is more intensive than undergraduate study and requires more independent research. Assessment can be by thesis, examination and/or internal assessment, depending on the specific course being studied.

www.otago.ac.nz/postgraduate

Distance Learning The University teaches some courses by distance learning, allowing people located elsewhere to study. This is particularly convenient for working students who are already trying to balance home life and a full-time job with their study. Many distance-taught courses are available only within New Zealand, but some are available in Australia and beyond. Distance options are denoted by “DT” in the tables included on pages 16 to 46. Please note that Immigration New Zealand will not normally grant a student visa for study in New Zealand where the intended programme of study is wholly delivered by distance mode and students are not required to be attending classes at an Otago campus or designated centre.

Doctor of Philosophy The degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) is a research-only qualification designed for students who intend to pursue an academic or research career. The degree is awarded on the basis of the submission of a thesis that gives evidence of the candidate’s ability to carry out research, and demonstrates that the candidate has shown originality and independence, and has made a significant contribution to knowledge in a particular field. The PhD degree can usually be completed in a minimum of three years’ full-time study.

Entrance requirements Admission usually requires the completion of a master’s degree, or a four-year first-class or upper-second-class honours degree in the same area of study, or a related discipline, as the intended area of research. Applicants for this degree must provide evidence of a research background. They must submit a research proposal and identify a principal supervisor willing to provide full supervision for the thesis.

Admission The PhD degree has its own admission process. Initial admission for the degree is provisional and is confirmed only after one year of satisfactory full-time study. Further information on admission requirements and the PhD regulations are available online at www.otago.ac.nz/study/phd

Masters’ Degrees Masters’ degrees vary in nature at Otago, but most allow for the development of individual research skills. Working from a strong background of study, candidates have the opportunity to contribute to existing specialist fields or to begin to develop new areas of research. Masters’ degrees are typically research-only, but some can be a combination of research and coursework, or a mainly coursework programme. A master’s degree is normally a full-time one-year programme for candidates with an honours degree or postgraduate diploma, and a two-year full-time programme for candidates with a standard bachelor’s degree. Some specialist programmes are of different lengths.

Entrance requirements Candidates with an honours degree or postgraduate diploma may apply for master’s study by thesis only. In some cases, candidates with a bachelor’s degree may apply for master’s study by coursework and thesis. A master’s degree is usually undertaken in the same area of study as the major subject pursued for a bachelor’s degree, postgraduate diploma or honours degree. However, some other masters’ programmes are available that require only that the candidate is a graduate and/or has appropriate work experience. www.otago.ac.nz/study/masters

Honours Degrees

Postgraduate Diplomas

Diploma for Graduates

All three-year bachelors’ degrees have postgraduate honours degrees allied to them (e.g. Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Arts with Honours). They involve further papers in the subject of the first degree and a research report or dissertation.

A postgraduate diploma provides a specialist postgraduate qualification and a pathway to research study, extending the knowledge gained in a bachelor’s degree. It offers students structured courses and guidance, as well as the opportunity to undertake some independent research. Students are able to focus on a specific area of study while developing research skills.

The Diploma for Graduates is a one-year qualification open to graduates. Unlike a postgraduate diploma, which involves 400-level papers, the Diploma for Graduates typically involves undergraduate papers (that is, papers at 100-, 200- and 300-level). The Diploma for Graduates comes in two forms. In its flexible form, the diploma is intended for graduates who wish to broaden their undergraduate background, and any combination of subjects that constitutes an academically feasible and justifiable programme of study is permitted, provided that the chosen combination includes enough points at 300-level. The endorsed form of the Diploma for Graduates identifies a subject of specialisation, and requires that papers be concentrated in that subject. Since the endorsed diploma for graduates is approximately equivalent to a new major subject, it is often used as a bridge to postgraduate study.

A postgraduate honours degree must normally be completed in one academic year of fulltime study. It is possible to undertake honours degrees in more than one subject, or to take a combined honours degree (involving a blend of papers from two subjects).

Entrance requirements A postgraduate honours degree can be taken at any time after the completion of a bachelor’s degree. It is usually undertaken in the same area of study as the major subject pursued for a bachelor’s degree, or in a related discipline, and requires achievement at a high academic level.

A postgraduate diploma can usually be completed in one academic year of full-time study.

Entrance requirements A postgraduate diploma can be taken at any time after the completion of a bachelor’s degree. It is usually undertaken in the same area of study as the major subject pursued for a bachelor’s degree, or in a related discipline, and requires achievement at a satisfactory academic level.

Postgraduate Certificates A postgraduate certificate is generally a sixmonth coursework qualification that recognises continuing professional development in the same area as the candidate’s original degree. It can usually be completed in one semester of full-time study, or the equivalent in part-time study.

Entrance requirements A postgraduate certificate can be taken at any time after the completion of a bachelor’s degree. It is usually undertaken in the same area of study as the major subject pursued for a bachelor’s degree or in a related discipline.

Entrance requirements Candidates with a bachelor’s degree or extensive training and experience in an appropriate field may apply.

STUDENT PROFILE

Jingyan (Sally) Wei China BCom, Accounting

“I just love being part of it!” That is English language skills, and to meet Sally Wei, describing her life at a new friends. Through the Language University of Otago residential Centre, Sally was partnered with a college. The girls who live with ‘language match’ – someone from her at Salmond College, she says, the Dunedin community who have become great study partners, is learning Chinese; “We teach supportive networks and best each other.” The arrangement has friends. “It’s exciting getting to improved both their skills, says know lots of people from different Sally, and allows her to share some cultures.” of her Chinese culture with New Asked if she found coming from Zealand. China to study at Otago daunting, Sally shakes her head: “I enjoy experiencing new environments.” Before beginning her Commerce degree, Sally spent three months attending the University of Otago’s Language Centre. This gave her the opportunity to greatly improve her

Sally’s aptitude for languages (she is doing a minor in Spanish) has prompted her desire to travel more and to perhaps do further study abroad once she finishes her degree at Otago. Indeed, Sally particularly appreciates the flexibility and international

applicability of her Commerce degree. “It will give me the opportunity to do whatever I want.” In her free time, Sally makes the most of the facilities offered through the Otago University Students’ Association (OUSA); her most recent hobby is attending yoga classes with her friends. Sally is looking forward to another three years at the University of Otago, despite being far from home. “I keep in touch with my family,” Sally says, “and I feel very supported here at Otago.”

The University of Otago has an unparalleled reputation in the field of Health Sciences.

Health Sciences www.otago.ac.nz/healthsciences

The University of Otago is New Zealand’s longest-established Health Sciences’ research and teaching institution. It is the only New Zealand university to offer a degree in Dentistry, and one of only two to offer degrees in Pharmacy, Medicine and Physiotherapy. Otago also offers the benefits of a national presence, with teaching hubs in numerous locations throughout New Zealand, and Schools of Medicine and Health Sciences located in Christchurch and Wellington, in addition to the Dunedin-based schools.

The Division of Health Sciences provides research-based undergraduate, postgraduate, professional and academic programmes of an international standard in the health and related biomedical sciences. In a typical year, there are more than 4,000 undergraduate students and 1,000 postgraduate students studying a wide variety of health-related programmes. The strength of Health Sciences at Otago is reflected in the international reputation of the division’s research teams, the high standard of teaching and research facilities, and the wide range of programmes available. Otago graduates are employed around the world and many have risen to leadership positions at overseas universities and research institutions.

Undergraduate Study The Division of Health Sciences offers a range of professional degrees: • Medicine (MB ChB, six years)* • Dental Surgery (BDS, five years) • Medical Laboratory Science (BMLSc, four years) • Pharmacy (BPharm, four years) • Physiotherapy (BPhty, four years). The Division also offers: • Bachelor of Dental Technology (BDentTech, three years) • Bachelor of Oral Health (BOH, three years) • Bachelor of Biomedical Sciences (BBiomedSc, three years). * International places in the MB ChB are usually only available to students enrolled as sponsored students under the terms of agreements between the University of Otago and overseas governments or institutions.

In addition, Otago’s strength in biomedical sciences offers numerous opportunities for study in the biological sciences. Specific programme options include the Bachelor of Biomedical Sciences (BBiomedSc, three years) and Bachelor of Science (BSc, three years) in one of the biological majors, including Anatomy, Biochemistry, Genetics, Microbiology and Immunology, Neuroscience, Pharmacology and Toxicology and Physiology.

Health Sciences First Year The Health Sciences First Year programme is the first year of study for students seeking entry into any one of the following degrees: MB ChB, BDS, BMLSc, BPharm and BPhty*. It also provides suitable academic preparation for students wishing, as an alternative, to take a Bachelor of Biomedical Sciences or a Bachelor of Science in one of the biological majors. A limited number of places may be available for international students in the second year of each of the BDS, BMLSc, BPharm and BPhty degrees. Entry into the second year of each of these degrees is competitive and selection is based upon the grades achieved in the Health Sciences First Year programme and, in some cases, a current UMAT result and an oral assessment.

Postgraduate Study Postgraduate students from a range of backgrounds choose to study Health Sciences at Otago. Programmes are available in Dentistry, Medicine, Medical Sciences, Pharmacy, Physiotherapy, as well as in a wide range of health-related disciplines such as Bioethics, Occupational Health, Public Health, Hazard Assessment and Management, Sports Medicine and Health Informatics. The range of Health Sciences’ postgraduate programmes available at the University enables the sharing of knowledge, information, staff and resources, and the cross-fertilisation of ideas and initiatives. Otago’s Health Sciences’ researchers are extremely successful in gaining research funding from external sources, many are international leaders in their fields and some hold executive posts in international professional bodies. The success of the Division of Health Sciences’ collaboration can be illustrated by the number of multidisciplinary research activities hosted by the division.

STUDENT PROFILE

Anne Khoo Malaysia, BPhty, Physiotherapy

Before arriving at the University of Otago in February, Physiotherapy student Anne Khoo had seen photos of New Zealand’s South Island. But when she saw the scenery in “real life,” she says she “couldn’t believe that it’s not a photo, it’s so awesome!” Even though Anne is far from her home in Malaysia, she says she “doesn’t feel the distance”. She keeps in regular contact with her family, and counteracts her cravings for Malaysian food by cooking with a group of Malaysian friends each week. Anne also utilises the Otago Malaysian Students’ Association (OMSA): “We do activities together... barbecues, ‘Malaysian nights’, and performances, it’s so much fun!”

As well as her contacts from Anne acknowledges that studying OMSA, Anne has made many physiotherapy is “a lot of work”. friends within her physiotherapy However, she adds, “there is a lot class: “It’s a small class, and we’ve of help available, from my lecturers, bonded well.” Anne enjoys the my tutors, and my peers.” And now theoretical aspects of the lectures, that Anne has found her passion but particularly thrives in practical through physiotherapy, she cannot situations, “I appreciate the course imagine studying anything else. more when I can apply what I’ve “When I see my patients get better,” learnt to real patients.” she says, “that makes me so happy, I Anne’s multilingual abilities prove just can’t describe the feeling.” advantageous when dealing with foreign patients, and have also secured her a part-time job tutoring Mandarin. In addition to her job, Anne makes an effort to engage in recreational activities to balance her academic life. Currently, she is enrolled in yoga and meditation classes, commenting that “the meditation techniques are very helpful during stressful times.”

Humanities www.otago.ac.nz/humanities

Humanities subjects at Otago cover two main areas of learning – the arts and the social sciences. The Humanities comprise those subjects that investigate the human world, how humans relate to their environment and essentially, what it is to be human. Humanities subjects explore areas as varied as: • Human culture, history, beliefs and value systems • How people communicate with each other, express themselves and represent their experience • The analysis of human behaviour • The nature of, and relationship between, social and environmental systems • The way that environmental, social, economic and political processes shape our lives. There are also departments which provide specialist professional education for lawyers, planners, ministers of religion, social workers and teachers.

Undergraduate Studies In the Bachelor of Arts there are at least 50 Humanities subjects to choose from, ranging from Anthropology to Writing. Whatever subjects students choose, Humanities graduates develop essential lifelong learning skills such as critical thinking, flexibility and competence with language. Together with the knowledge of the human and natural world that the arts and social sciences impart, these skills prepare Humanities graduates for employment in a multitude of areas.

Postgraduate Studies

Research Strengths

Postgraduate study programmes are a major focus of the Humanities Division at the University of Otago. The Division has the largest number of top research departments in arts subjects of any university in New Zealand.* In a typical year, the Division of Humanities has more than 600 students enrolled for higher degrees by thesis (mainly PhD and Master of Arts) and a growing number of students studying towards specialised masters’ degrees by coursework. All academic staff are active researchers and postgraduate students are matched with supervisors who are expert in their field.

The Division has a number of formally recognised research themes, centres, clusters and networks in areas of research strength. In addition, distinguished scholars in a wide range of disciplines are able to provide supervision in the areas of their current research. Full details of staff expertise can be found at:

Postgraduate students are also able to benefit from close collaborative links with an extensive and diverse range of universities and institutes from around the world, with an opportunity to study abroad under expert research supervision at top international research universities and institutes.

*Confirmed by the results of the Performance-Based Research Fund appraisal conducted in 2006.

Unique Resources For students intending to work on topics relating to New Zealand and the Pacific, the Division of Humanities has archaeological and fieldwork sites in the South Island of New Zealand, the Pacific, South-East Asia and Papua New Guinea. The Hocken Collections is one of the foremost historical research libraries in New Zealand, housing archives, manuscripts, books, pamphlets, newspapers, maps, periodicals, paintings, drawings, photographs, music and film. Ample research opportunities are also provided by significant repositories of early books in the University’s Central Library, including the De Beer Collection, the Brasch Collection and the Shoults Collection: www.library.otago.ac.nz/SpecialCollections/

The Division of Humanities enjoys close collaborative links with leading research universities and institutes around the world.

Unique opportunities are available at Otago for students in contemporary music and studio production. Collaboration with the music industry to develop the New Zealand Music Industry Centre (NZMiC) has provided a world class music console (mixing desk) at the Music Department’s Albany Street recording studio.

Graduate Destinations Graduates with masters’ and PhD degrees enjoy a wide range of employment destinations, irrespective of the particular subject in which they complete their research. Recent graduates have found employment as policy analysts, project managers, researchers, archivists, publicists, university lecturers, and in editorial roles across a broad spectrum of institutions and businesses – especially in government ministries and agencies.

STUDENT PROFILE

Angga Dwiartama Indonesia, PhD, Geography

After completing undergraduate and masters’ studies in Indonesia, Angga Dwiartama aspired to gain a PhD. But instead of following his friends to study in Europe, he headed in the opposite direction, to the University of Otago. According to Angga, it was an easy choice to make: Otago has an excellent reputation for research, and he “wanted to experience a different atmosphere” ... and while this atmosphere may include temperatures much colder than his home city in Indonesia, he says that he and his wife are “fitting in well”. Angga had majored in Human Ecology and Natural Resources Management in Indonesia, and Otago’s Centre for Study of Agriculture, Food and the

Environment (CSAFE) provided an opportunity to undertake a PhD within New Zealand’s renowned agriculture industry. Specifically, he is examining agrifood chain systems involved in delivering food commodities from ‘land to mouth’, and how these systems react to ‘shocks’ within the industry. His project uses New Zealand’s kiwifruit industry and Indonesia’s rice industry as case studies. Angga says that his ability to compare the agrifood situation of New Zealand to that of Indonesia has enabled him to provide new and helpful perspectives within the industry: “As an ‘outsider’, I can hopefully make insightful contributions.”

When he returns to Indonesia, Angga’s New Zealand qualification will place him at the top of his field. As he says, “My Otago PhD will give me a professional advantage, and also a wider appreciation of the industry.” In a personal context, Angga believes that his experience in New Zealand will see him return to Indonesia more “mature, accepting, and knowledgeable”. He admires the “open minded” approach of New Zealanders, and has enjoyed learning about Mäori culture. Asked if he thinks he’ll have a Kiwi accent upon returning to Indonesia after three years here, he laughs, “That’s one thing I probably wouldn’t bring back with me.”

Sciences www.sciences.otago.ac.nz

The excellence and influence of a university’s research is what lifts it above the ordinary. Research and science are inseparable – science marches forward because of research and, as it does, we understand more of the intricate physical and biological subtleties of our existence.

In the Division of Sciences there are many proven research leaders who, through their passion for science, have created a thriving research ethos that permeates every department, a passion that in turn attracts and inspires students. Research is enhanced by the division’s continued success in securing major contestable and commercial funding, and by international partnerships. The 2006 PBRF assessment found that Otago has the highest proportion of staff undertaking research of world-class or very good quality. In Sciences that proportion is 55 per cent, nearly twice the national average.

Programmes The Division’s outstanding research performance enriches a broad range of highquality programmes that span the basic sciences, applied science, and multidisciplinary curricula in the ecological and environmental sciences, genetics, forensics and neuroscience. Otago regards the promotion of student research in a friendly supportive environment as a priority and is proud of its first-rate teaching and learning, supervision and wide-ranging research expertise. These are complemented by superb laboratories and facilities for in situ fieldwork that meet and often exceed the standards necessary to remain at the cutting edge of knowledge.

Internationally-acclaimed research enhances Otagoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s reputation as a pre-eminent science research hub and nurtures study.

Interdisciplinary Studies

Research Strengths

Opportunities are further stimulated through interdisciplinary study focused on topics such as active earth processes, ecology, lasers and applications, memory, polar environments, photonics and ultra-cold atoms, energy, ocean and climate change, and obesity, with strong connections to research in other areas of the University. Applied research centres strengthen and diversify the range of study options that exist within the division.

Alpine Ecosystems

Why Choose Science at Otago? The diverse catalogue of undergraduate and postgraduate qualifications on offer in the Division of Sciences leads to an abundance of job options that include all types of education, technical and research positions in the private and public sectors, executive management, and the most entrepreneurial careers in business. Degrees in the Division of Sciences are recognised around the world as being of the highest standing, with the result that many of our graduates hold senior positions in all spheres of life and work.

New Zealand is a land of great natural beauty, and it is also one of the world’s most exciting adventure playgrounds.

New Zealand Aotearoa Comparable in physical size to Japan or Great Britain, New Zealand has a population of over four million people, making it one of the least crowded countries in the world. It is a land of great natural beauty, and it is also one of the world’s most exciting adventure playgrounds.

New Zealand / Aotearoa was originally settled by the Mäori about 1,000 years ago, followed by waves of European immigration during the past two centuries. Today the country maintains a diverse and dynamic multicultural emphasis, enhanced by the growing number of people from the Pacific Islands and Asia who have also made New Zealand their home in recent years. New Zealanders are friendly people who, in spite of (or perhaps because of) the country’s geographical location and relatively small population, have earned a reputation for being both enterprising and innovative. They welcome international visitors and have a wide range of interests, from the arts to outdoor and sporting pursuits. New Zealanders love their sport and are good at it. Swimming, walking, biking, hiking, boating and fishing are all easily accessible as are many sporting codes such as rugby, soccer, tennis, netball, basketball, golf, squash and hockey. Those who are more adventurous enjoy white-water rafting, jet boating and bungy jumping, while in the winter months the country’s many ski fields attract skiers and snowboarders from across New Zealand and afar.

The New Zealand economy is broadly-based. It is a major exporter of primary products with manufacturing, information technology, biological and medical research, education and tourism also playing vital economic roles. There is a growing focus on eco-tourism ventures, the wine industry, fashion design and a flourishing film industry that is gaining wide international recognition. The New Zealand dollar is a stable currency offering visitors a favourable exchange rate. All goods and services are subject to 15 per cent goods and services tax (included in the display price) and all major credit cards can be used.

A commitment to education continues to be one of Dunedin’s most impressive qualities.

Dunedin and Otago The southernmost of New Zealand’s main centres and the largest city in the province of Otago, Dunedin holds a special place in the hearts of many, and not just those who live here. Although relatively small, it boasts many natural attractions as well as the facilities usually offered only by cities many times its size. Settled by the Scottish in 1848, Dunedin grew rapidly with the discovery of gold in the Otago hinterland and became, for a while, the commercial centre of New Zealand. During this time, many of New Zealand’s most beautiful buildings were constructed and, with the establishment of the University of Otago in 1869, the foundations were laid for a strong tradition in education. This commitment to education continues to be one of the city’s most impressive qualities. The many early childhood education centres, primary and secondary schools enjoy an established reputation for excellence, and tertiary institutions attract students from throughout New Zealand and the world. Dunedin is New Zealand’s only true student city and the relatively large student population contributes greatly to the city’s colourful and dynamic atmosphere.

The central city streets are lined with restaurants, bars and cafes. Modern shopping malls trade alongside boutiques, galleries, and weekly craft and farmers’ markets. The fashion industry is particularly vibrant with several of New Zealand’s leading designers based in the city. The Dunedin Public Art Gallery, museums and libraries are among the finest in the country and professional theatre and the Dunedin Sinfonia enjoy a high profile. Dunedin is also home to New Zealand’s newest, largest and most versatile arena – the Forsyth Barr Stadium at University Plaza. This is the place to go for major sporting events, concerts and more. Temperatures range from an average 14 – 24 degrees Celsius in the summer (December – February) and from 5 – 13 degrees Celsius in the winter (June – August), so outdoor activities can be enjoyed year-round. There are more than 150 walking tracks in the Dunedin environs, four championship golf courses and many other sporting facilities which are all easily accessible. The long natural harbour is

favoured for watersports and St Clair beach is considered one of New Zealand’s best for surfing. Dunedin is encircled by a “Town Belt” of native bush and trees and its coastline is home to colonies of yellow-eyed penguins, New Zealand fur seals and the world’s only mainland breeding colony of the Royal albatross. Just a few hours’ drive out of the city are some of New Zealand’s most spectacular natural attractions – rugged mountains, deep fiords, clear blue lakes – including the internationally-known resort towns of Queenstown and Wanaka, famed for their ski fields and burgeoning wine industry.

Work Rights Semester work rights of up to 20 hours per week are available to full-time international students enrolled in courses taking at least two years to complete, or courses culminating in a New Zealand qualification that would qualify for points under the Skilled Migrant Category.  Fulltime students enrolled for at least one academic year as part of an approved exchange scheme are also eligible for term-time work rights.  Summer holiday rights to work full-time are available to any full-time international students enrolled in a programme of more than 12 months’ duration.  Open work visas are available to eligible partners of postgraduate students. International students who have completed a qualification in New Zealand that would gain points under the Skilled Migrant Category and who do not have a job offer, may be eligible to apply for a 12-month graduate job search work visa. Students with a job offer relevant to their qualification and who successfully completed a qualification in New Zealand that would gain points under the Skilled Migrant Category, may be granted a work visa valid for up to two years. A work visa for up to three years may be awarded if students are working towards obtaining a membership or registration from a New Zealand professional association that requires more than two years of relevant practical work experience (e.g. New Zealand Institute of Chartered Accountants).

2013 INTERNATIONAL TUITION FEES

6 An orientation programme will be held before enrolment. There will be no extra charge for participation in this programme.

International tuition fees are detailed on the course information pages of this prospectus. The notes below provide further explanatory information on how tuition fees are charged and important policies associated with these fees.

7 Costs for some course materials, field trips and thesis publication are not included in the quoted fees.

1 All fees are inclusive of GST (New Zealand Goods and Services Tax). 2 Tuition fees do not include any of the University’s sundry charges. Please see the table below for indicative sundry charges. 3 Tuition fees do not include any of the University’s administrative charges. For 2012 these are:

Late Payment Fee Additional Monthly Payment Fee Late Course Approval Fee Late Registration Fee Reinstatement of Enrolment Fee Final Exams Only (per paper) Tuition Refund Fee

$NZ93.00 $NZ21.00 $NZ120.00 $NZ120.00 $NZ59.00 $NZ93.00 $NZ93.00

2013 administrative fees will be set in late 2012.

4 The tuition fees detailed on pages 16-46 provide an estimate of costs for 2013. The tuition fees listed may not represent the actual cost of a programme of study. Generally, a student’s total tuition is made up of the collective fees for each paper for which the student is enrolled. The subject category fee (as listed in this schedule) and the EFTS (funding equation) value will determine the fee of any paper. The actual programme fee will be affected by:

• the enrolment for more or less than 1 EFT (a normal full-time course)

• the inclusion of papers from different subject areas (which are at different fee rates)

• the sequencing of enrolment in papers within the course

• a change to the structure of the course and the availability of papers.

5 Tuition fees are assessed each year. The fee categories are applicable only to the calendar year (January-December) in which the course is commenced. If a course of study extends for one or more semesters in a subsequent calendar year(s), the students will be required to pay the tuition fee applicable for that calendar year(s). Annual fee increases (or decreases) are expected to be modest. Under current circumstances this would be in the order of up to 5% per annum.

The following students are normally eligible to enrol at the University of Otago under the same conditions as New Zealand students and at the same level of fees:

•

Australian citizens and permanent residents of Australia residing and studying in New Zealand for the duration of their courses of study

•

Citizens of the Cook Islands, Niue and Tokelau who are New Zealand citizens.

Australian citizens and permanent residents of Australia residing and studying outside New Zealand are required to pay full-cost international fees.

9 Students who have been granted study awards or scholarships by Rotary International, Commonwealth Scholarship Scheme, Fulbright Awards, or DAAD pay equivalent New Zealand fees only. 10 Most PhD and certain other doctoral students enrolling at a New Zealand university are eligible to pay tuition fees at the New Zealand domestic level. International doctoral students must be resident in New Zealand during their studies, apart from approved temporary absences overseas for the purposes of doctoral research, to be classified as domestic students. As a guide, the table on the next page provides 2012 domestic tuition rates. 11 Postgraduate fees for 2013 reflect a level of subsidy from the University in recognition of the valuable contribution that is made by postgraduate students to University research.

STUDENT SERVICES FEE The University of Otago is required by Government regulation to ensure a range of services are available to students and these are funded through the charging of the Student Services Fee. In 2012, the Student Services Fee (GST inclusive) for Dunedin on-campus students is $672.14. Students whose course is delivered at the other University of Otago campuses (Wellington, Christchurch and Southland) are charged a Student Services Fee of $122.53. Distance students are not charged a Student Services Fee as there is no access to services for these students.

FEES REFUND POLICY Please note that policies and deadlines detailed below are subject to change. Up-to-date policies are available from the University’s website. 1. FULL FEES REFUND

Fees may be refunded in full, less a refund fee, where a student has completed the Course Approval process, under the following conditions:

a) the University withdraws an offer of a place or is unable to provide the entire degree or diploma programme

b) a student is unable to obtain a student visa and permit

c) a student fails to meet the condition of an Offer of Place

d) a student formally withdraws from study by:

• 14 January – for Summer School papers • 31 March – for full-year and first semester papers • 31 July – for second semester papers.

If an Offer of Place is withdrawn on the basis of incorrect or incomplete information supplied by the student, the University reserves the right to retain up to 10% of the tuition fee (if already paid).

2. PARTIAL REFUND OF FEES

A student may formally withdraw after the above dates, and may receive up to a 50% refund of tuition fees in exceptional circumstances only (sundry, any agency or commission fees and administration fees are non-refundable). In these cases, withdrawal must be completed by:

• 4 February – for Summer School papers • 10 May – for first semester papers • 10 September – for second semester and full-year papers.

“Exceptional circumstances” are defined as circumstances that are beyond the control of the student, and include illness supported by a New Zealand medical certificate.

3. GENERAL REFUND CONDITIONS

a) Any additional costs incurred by the University for external clinical placements will be deducted from any refund.

b) No refunds are given for students who discontinue study after the official withdrawal dates.

c) Once a student has course approved they are deemed to be attending their chosen course of study. Failure to attend is not grounds for deletion of enrolment after the due dates with entitlement to a refund.

CHANGE OF RESIDENTIAL STATUS a) International students who are granted New Zealand residency while enrolled may be eligible to pay domestic fees for the current and subsequent years (see below). Proof of change of residential status can be demonstrated only by presenting an original passport with residency visa stamp. b) To be considered for a refund of tuition fees to the equivalent domestic fee level, the date of award of the residence visa (as printed on the visa) must be prior to:

• • •

16 January 2013 for Summer School papers 31 March 2013 for first semester and full year papers 31 July 2013 for second semester papers.

Award of the residence visa after these dates will mean ongoing charging at the international tuition rate for the duration of the paper(s).

International students with pending New Zealand residency are advised to seek advice from the University about their situation prior to enrolment.

FEE PROTECTION POLICY The University is governed by the Public Finance Act, the Education Act, and University Council regulations in regard to student fees. An individual fee account is maintained for each enrolled student. In the event that the University is not able to offer an academic programme for the semester intake indicated on the student’s Offer of Place, all funds will be refunded to the student. Further information on the University’s refund policy for international students can be found above.
