Our people

The University of Otago Schools’ Liaison team has offices in Auckland, Wellington and Dunedin. We visit secondary schools in New Zealand during Terms One and Two each year to let senior students know about the opportunities for living and learning at Otago. Then we return in Terms Three and Four to help you plan your studies.

Schools' Liaison staff are available to speak to students and their parents at our Information Evenings, at Careers Evenings in your schools and in our offices by interview, telephone, email, Skype and Zoom.

You can also stay in touch with us via  Facebook
