The publications states that “Hi Kitenga reflects the concept of discovery. The Māori work kitenga derives from kite which translates to words such as see, perceive, find and discover. This title reflects the University’s connection to New Zealand’s cultural heritage, as well as its commitment to national and international research and innovation.”
