School of Computing, Technology and Communications
At the School of Computing, Technology and Communications we can help you further your skills and knowledge in any of the following areas, and we have a team of great tutors keen to help you learn.
If you are an entry level learner check out our Certificate in Computing and Communications Technology Level 3. You can work your way up through our qualifications, or enter at any stage and study all the way up to a Degree or Graduate Diploma of Computing.
If art is your thing we can teach you all the disciplines from drawing to painting, ceramics, to carving/whakairo. Artists with some experience should consider our Level Seven Diploma which leads onto a Bachelors Degree of Fine Arts with Whitecliffe College of Arts and Design.
Do you like to design or redesign your personal space? One part artist and one part business professional, there’s no shortage of excitement in an interior design career. Graduate with our Diploma of Interior Design, and pursue what you had always wanted to do...Interior Design!
Maybe you aspire to be the next fashion designer for Gucci or Prada, or even start your own label? Why not undertake our two-year diploma in fashion technology, and then pathway to either Instituto di Moda Burgo in Milan, Italy or the Whitehouse Institute of Design in Melbourne or Sydney, Australia!
For those of you who like the written word we have two excellent choices. The Diploma in Bicultural Journalism is a training ground for some of New Zealand’s top journalists. This programme can take you into print, radio, or TV.
Those with a creative bent can do a Certificate or Diploma in Applied Writing and try a number of genres—short stories, poetry, editing, writing with a Māori voice, and exploring New Zealand's top Māori writers. The tutors are all well published authors.
How about working in an ever-changing environment? Managing the communications strategy of a company or local authority; or working for a public relations or communications consultancy can be an exciting lifestyle. The best way to begin is with the Diploma in Communications (Applied).
