The study route has two stages: the academic online stage at Nairi International
University and on-campus study on the chosen programme of a New Zealand
institution. The first stage can be started before relocating, while you prepare
your English and your documents; on confirmed routes the NIU credits are
recognised when you move on to the partner programme.
The catalogue below lists the programmes of New Zealand institutions available
through such routes. Which programme fits depends on your previous education,
your experience, your career goal and the requirements of the receiving side, so
a route is normally built with several options at once.

On completing the programme, and having met the requirements of both institutions, students receive a degree from each of them.
Does NIU cooperate with New Zealand universities?

Do the programs comply with international standards?
