Research at Waiariki
Research at Waiariki Institute of Technology is directed towards making a positive difference to our students, our iwi partners, our industry partners and our local, Regional and National environment. The research may be described as applied or vocational, but our key focus is that the work makes a practical, and beneficial, change in how things are done.
We are a uniquely bicultural Institution which allows us to view issues from at least two viewpoints – Maori and Pakeha. This approach strengthens our ability to find new and practical answers to issues that matter to our stakeholders. One consequence of this emphasis is the publication of the
Journal of Best Practice in Applied and Maori/Indigenous Vocational Education
Staff in all of our six Schools are involved in research activities, working within their Schools on discipline specific projects or collaboratively with each other and the support centres when the projects are inter-disciplinary.
