“I have achieved many successes at MIT. I also built up
my confidence as a non-English Speaker in an English
environment. MIT provides me a step-by-step pathway for
my study planning. My English level was not satisfactory
for me to attain other academic courses. However the
ESOL course gives me a lot of knowledge not only for daily
life, but also in academic study needs. After ESOL study,
I have also successfully completed my Foundation study
before I went to Diploma in Business Studies. The courses
offered by MIT are very useful for daily life, either in EOSL
or Business Studies. It initiates me to be more creative
which is necessary for my success in my future career.”

because I loved the small class sizes. The lecturers are so
friendly and approachable; they treat you like a person not
just a number. In fact, one of the lecturers helped me find
the job I am in now.
The course content is so relevant to industry and what
I do now. It teaches you real stuff which is immediately

Bachelor of Visual Arts
Currently studying for a Post Graduate Diploma
in Fine Arts at Elam
“Right now I am studying for my Post Graduate Diploma in
Fine Arts at Elam. I wouldn’t have been able to access this
programme if I hadn’t completed my Bachelor of Visual
Arts at MSVA. What I found most successful was the little
skills you find along the way; different ways of thinking
about how to approach the subject matter in a challenging
way. It really got me focused on the art I was creating.
Studying at MSVA has allowed me to go onto further
studies and helped me gain a place in the most prestigious
art school in New Zealand. It’s also made it more possible
for me to make a living from my art, whether by creating
or teaching, which I have a passion for.”

“This programme has helped me quite a bit with getting me
a job in industry. The degree gave me a broad knowledge
of the industry and the project work gave me experience
in dealing with real-life clients. The learning around
information systems was valuable, however, it was the
business logic which I have found to be most important.
You can learn all you want about information systems
but if you don’t know how to implement them into the
business you will struggle. I would definitely recommend
this programme to anyone looking to gain a career in the
computing and computing software industry.”

“I graduated last year with a diploma in Mechanical Engineering. The diploma course was very good, the lecturers were all supportive and encouraged me right through the course. I am very practical minded and I was pleased to find that the course definitely gave me the practical knowledge I needed. When I first came here in 2007 the industry was booming and there were a lot of jobs available. Now, as I have graduated the recession has taken hold and it’s much harder to get a job. I think I would have found it much harder to get employment had it not been for my diploma. It really stood me in good stead at my job interviews. I have now got a good job in the industry and really feel my study at MIT helped this.“

Electrical Engineering programmes
have been taught at MIT since it
opened in 1970. The school teaches
a broad range of programmes from
certificate through to honours
degree level.
In recent years, New Zealand industry
has changed from a protected,
consumer product producer, to an
export intensive, high technology,
niche provider covering a wide
range of technologies. Electrical
and electronic devices are found
embedded in a wide range of New
Zealand products and systems.
Engineers, Technologists and
Technicians have a vital support role
to play in the design, prototyping,
installation, commissioning and
servicing of this equipment and
are needed in growing numbers.
As technology becomes more
complicated, so does the educational
requirement. MIT helps students
prepare for these exciting challenges.

“Having already completed a certificate and diploma in electrical engineering, I decided I wanted to further my study in this area and began looking for a tertiary institute where I could do a degree in engineering. I looked at a variety of universities and polytechs around the country and decided on MIT’s Degree in Electrical Engineering. I felt the focus and environment of MIT would suit me best as I am a hands-on, practical person. I think one of MIT’s real strengths is the direct contact you have with your lecturers. They challenged us and made us think for ourselves which is essential for an engineer’s development. I now work full time at an electronics engineering firm in Glendene as an Electronics Engineer. It’s a wide and varied job and I believe my MIT degree gave me the confidence and ability to succeed.”

• Have an awareness of the social and environmental impact of engineering
• Demonstrate the use of advanced technology to design and develop a project
• Have problem solving and critical thinking skills. These attributes are interwoven throughout the many courses in the programme as an underlying theme to develop the student.
This degree consists of three years full time study divided into 20 courses. The Year 1 courses are compulsory to provide underpinning knowledge for the courses in the chosen major. The programme provides five majors:
• Computer Engineering • Computer Network Engineering • Electrical Engineering • Electronic Engineering • Mechatronics Engineering.
Each major shares a common set of compulsory courses in electrical and electronic principles, computer hardware and software, mathematics, engineering design, communications, accounting, management and use of natural resources. These common ‘core’ courses give breadth to the qualification, whilst the major strands provide discipline-specific knowledge and skills.
Each major has two strands of three specified courses, which enable the student to develop an in-depth knowledge of the major before undertaking a significant development project in the final semester. Project management principles taught in the professional development courses are applied when the development project is undertaken. A third strand permits the student to elect subjects to complement the chosen major.

lecturers. They always made time to understand your
problems and welcomed feedback, especially if you had a

Diploma in Supply Chain Management
Cost Controller, Quadrant Pacific Limited
“I knew I wanted a job in the shipping industry and the
Maritime School pointed me in the right direction. I
completed my Supply Chain Management Diploma last
year. I now have a specialised job as a cost controller in the
logistics departments of a shipping company. Studying at
the Maritime School was really fantastic. Being right on
the waterfront, opposite the port, the Maritime School is a
great location to study. We could see practical examples of
learning every day at the working port outside. This gave
me a much better understanding than simply learning from
a book. The location is also very helpful to international
students as it is right in the city and very easy to get to and
from. I am going to continue my studies at the Maritime
School this year with a Diploma in Shipping and Freight.”

The Diploma in Shipping and Freight and the Diploma in Supply Chain Management are the only dedicated full time programmes of study available in New Zealand that specifically prepare students for employment in the shipping, freight and logistics industries.

Diploma in Counselling (Level 6)
Workplace Support, Counsellor
“I really enjoyed the practical aspects of the course.
Having talked to students from other institutions it was
interesting to find that they hadn’t had as much practical
work as we had in our diploma programme. The Diploma
in Counselling at MIT is a very holistic and intense
course. As well as studying theoretical aspects you also
go through a personal process of working out where you
are in your own life. You become your own guinea pig
to some extent. I’m now working at a private Employee
Assistance Programme provider for workplace support
and I’m loving it.”
