City Campus

Our City Campus, at the centre of Auckland, is surrounded by lively city streets, stunning harbour views and nearby Albert Park. You'll find a range of international cuisines at nearby restaurants too. It is an ideal place to experience university life, with everything from cafes and libraries, to a recreation centre and health services. It has all you need to thrive in your studies and in your wellbeing and personal life.

Grafton Campus

Just a 20-minute walk from the City Campus, Grafton Campus is where our next generation of health professionals study. It is home to the Faculty of Medical and Health Sciences, and is conveniently located right across the road from Auckland Hospital – New Zealand's largest hospital. It has world-class training facilities and health clinics, as well as a library and café.

Students who study here may also have opportunities to undertake placements at clinical campuses and sites operating out of hospitals across the North Island.

Newmarket Campus

Home of exciting discoveries and groundbreaking research, the five-hectare Newmarket Campus is our innovation precinct, and houses our Engineering and Science faculties. Right near Newmarket's business district, it sits between the City Campus and Grafton Campus, and together they form a thriving, inner-city campus cluster – where students studying across all the different faculties can connect.

Leigh Marine Laboratory

Just 100 kilometres from Auckland (an hours drive away from the city) and nestled on the northeast coast, the Leigh Marine Campus is the Science Faculty's specialist campus for marine studies. It offers students and researchers access to 518 hectares of pristine marine habitat at the edge of Goat Island, New Zealand's oldest marine reserve.

Goldie Estate

Goldie Estate, on Waiheke Island, is where our Science Faculty provides advanced education in wine science. Home to the Goldie Vineyard and the Goldwater Wine Science Centre, it's a perfect place for students to gain knowledge and get hands-on experience in a real winery. You'll learn from industry experts and top academics while you contribute to advancing wine science in New Zealand.
