Santiago against the Andes — Chile, where the university is registered

Nairi University

Online bachelor’s and master’s study at NIU with a degree from a New Zealand institution: programmes at nine providers and a route to a NZ work visa.

Nairi International University is a private university in Viña del Mar, Chile. We deliver bachelor's and master's programmes online together with New Zealand institutions: a student follows one agreed curriculum and receives educational documents from both countries.

About the university

An open university

NIU was founded in 2019. It is an open online university: there is no traditional campus, studying does not depend on where the student lives, and anyone who meets the requirements of the chosen programme can enrol.

The academic model

It rests on a modular programme structure, digital learning platforms, integration of research, and the international expertise of the faculty.

Values

Academic integrity, innovation in teaching, respect for every student, continuous development, international cooperation.

Development strategy

Wider international presence, new programmes, a stronger academic reputation, and integration of research activity.

What studying with us gives you

  • NZQF level

    The programmes sit at levels 7 and 9 of the New Zealand Qualifications Framework — bachelor’s and master’s.

  • Two degrees

    Meet the requirements of both institutions and you graduate with a degree from each. The basis is the cooperation agreement and the RPL document.

  • Online and flexible

    The Chilean part of the programme is studied entirely online, so studying does not have to wait for the move. The rest is on campus in New Zealand.

How to apply

  1. Choose a programme

    The finder above narrows 196 programmes down to the ones that fit in three questions. Or go the other way and browse the full catalogue.

  2. Send an enquiry

    Use the button on a programme card, the form on the contacts page, email or WhatsApp. The more precisely you name the programme, the more specific the answer.

  3. Get the document list

    It differs between bachelor’s and master’s and depends on the programme, which is why it follows your enquiry rather than preceding it.

  4. Confirm your place

    The admissions office checks the documents, answers on dates and conditions and prepares the agreement with the university.

Questions about choosing a field, the structure of the studies and the New Zealand visa can be asked before you submit anything — the same admissions office answers them.

Questions about admission?

We will explain the requirements, the documents and the deadlines for the programme you are interested in. We need a name and a contact — the rest we can discuss when we reply.

Student stories

We are proud of our graduates. Each took a different route — from engineering into analytics, from employment into their own business, from one country to another — and each walked it themselves. They agreed to tell how it actually went: what worked and what came hard. You could be among them.

Who teaches

The programmes are taught by doctors and candidates of science, professors of Peter the Great St Petersburg Polytechnic University and of schools abroad — people with monographs, patents and international awards who still meet their students every week. You can talk to any of them before you apply: open a profile or write your question straight from the card.
