Nau mai, haere mai ki Te Kete Aronui o Te Whare Wānanga o Otāgo nei. He mihi nui, he mihi mahana ki a koutou, ngā ākonga e whai mātauranga ana.

He aha te mea nui o te Ao? He tāngata, he tāngata, he tāngata.
(What is the greatest thing in the world? It is people, it is people, it is people!)

Mā te ora, ka mōhio. Mā te mōhio, ka ora.
(Through life, we learn. Through learning, we live.)

 

Welcome to Humanities at Otago.

Our Division offers a wide range of internationally recognised programmes in the arts and the social sciences. In addition to our BA degree, with its wide range of majors, we offer undergraduate diplomas and degrees in Education, Language and Culture, Music, and Theology, as well as professional programs in Law, Social Work and Teaching. We also offer a wide range of quality postgraduate programs that are highly competitive, attracting students from around the world.

Staff within the Division are committed to offering the highest quality educational experience to students. All teaching is research-informed and staff within the Division play a vital part in developing the research culture of the University. Many are recognised nationally and internationally for the quality of their teaching and research.

This site contains a great deal of information about the degrees we offer at undergraduate level and how they prepare graduates for employment. I invite you to explore our website to learn more about what is on offer within the Division of Humanities.

If you require further information please contact departmental staff or the Divisional Office team. We are always ready to answer any inquiries you may have.
