Lincoln the place to be for cultivating great careers

More students from around the country are choosing to grow their futures at Te Whare Wānaka o Aoraki Lincoln University.

That’s because Lincoln’s specialist land-based subjects are centred around New Zealand’s largest export sectors, and this is supported by its graduate employment rate, which is the highest of any university in the country.

The small size of Te Whare Wānaka o Aoraki is also a big advantage, as it translates into a highly personalised learning environment and more oneon-one time with lectures. Staff pride themselves on always being available to students and their open-door policy offers the support needed to get the most out of a Lincoln degree.

The village atmosphere on campus creates a real sense of community and camaraderie.

The future is land-based Lincoln gives students the expertise to make meaningful contributions to society in various fields. These include agriculture, horticulture, grape-growing and winemaking, beer brewing and fermentation, business and finance, property and valuation, marketing, food science, conservation, environmental science or management, tourism, sport and recreation and landscape architecture.

The subject areas are varied but they all have one major element common: a strong focus on working with the land to enhance lives. Fostering sustainability is key, ensuring that the land-based sectors are able to thrive for many years to come.

Students benefit from hands-on practical experience, meaning they are able to get out there and start addressing real-world issues in the field from the very beginning of their studies. They also gain invaluable connections through Lincoln’s strong partnerships with industry, often leading them to secure jobs before even completing their qualifications.

For this reason, graduates are highly sought-after, as they have the skills and knowledge to help shape policies, develop sustainable practices in a range of sectors, and solve issues relating to utilising resources.
