Welcome to New Zealand’s first university and the first choice for around 21,000 students. After more than 150 years, the University of Otago still leads the way with world-class teaching and a legendary student lifestyle – the two core elements that set it apart, and the reason students from around the world choose Otago. With 195 undergraduate and postgraduate programmes on offer, many of the courses at Otago are the only ones of their kind in New Zealand.

  • Ranked #1 university in New Zealand for educational performance by the Tertiary Education Commission.
  • The first New Zealand university to achieve Fair Trade status and to pursue the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals.
  • Otago academic staff and researchers have worked closely with the New Zealand Government in an advisory capacity in the fight against COVID-19.
  • National presence: as well as the main Dunedin campus, Otago also has campuses in Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch, and Invercargill.
  • The University’s Dunedin campus is recognised as one of the most beautiful in the world.

The University of Otago main campus is located in the city of Dunedin – New Zealand’s student capital. Students make up one-fifth of Dunedin’s population, creating an energy and atmosphere that you’ll only find at Otago. Dunedin offers a wide range of accessible leisure activities. Ride the waves at some 30 nearby beaches, take on excellent mountain biking tracks, paddleboard, kayak or sail on the harbour, or head to Central Otago for a weekend at New Zealand’s top ski fields. It’s just part of life in Dunedin.
