Undergraduate Orientation programme

On your Orientation Day, you can expect to be welcomed and experience a pōwhiri ceremony as you get to know the University and your faculty. Give our campus tour a go before ending the day with a fun social event.

While Semester One Orientation has concluded, Semester Two Orientation will be held week commencing Monday 13 July 2026. Further details will be shared in the coming months.

We encourage our Māori and Pacific tauira joining us this semester to attend their Māori and Pacific orientation in addition to your undergraduate orientation day.

If you are a new international student we recommend that you also attend the International orientation in addition to your undergraduate orientation day.
